2023: Nigerians Are Not Interested In PDP Crisis

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Iyorchia Ayu, has said Nigerians are not concerned about the internal wranglings in the party.

Ayu stated that the people are waiting for the opposition party to come and rescue them from the shackles of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Benue-born politician stated this on Monday at the flag-off of the PDP Presidential rally in Uyo, the capital of Akwa Ibom State.

Ayu said Nigerians are hungry, poor and insecure as a result of the bad policies of the APC, saying that the PDP is the solution to the problems facing the country.

The PDP chairman, however, appealed to all party members to join and support the campaign to emerge victorious in the 2023 general elections.

Ezenwoko’s Blog reports that Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and his allies, including, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, Samuel Ortom of Benue, Seyi Makinde of Oyo, and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu, were absent from the flag-off ceremony on Monday.

Ayu said: “We are moving slowly so that those who are yet on board will join us on the train. It is important for us as leaders. Nigeria is not interested in our personal quarrels; Nigeria is waiting for us to come and rescue them from what is worrying them.

“Nigerians are hungry; Nigerians are suffering from all sorts of sickness; Nigerians cannot move from one point to another without worries; Nigerians cannot sleep because of insecurity.

“Nigerians are getting more and more divided; Nigerians are complaining and are hoping that what we did for them in the last 16 years, we will come back and do it for them again.

“Let us all join hands together because we have the solution. Already, we have penned down the covenant with Nigerians. We will restore the economy to its glory.

“All young people will get jobs; the economy will grow; there will be more industries. Every PDP governor has performed well. Therefore, when we get to power from state houses of assembly to the state governors, the national assembly, we need all of them to support our president who is coming to power next year to redeem Nigerians. PDP will not disappoint you.”
