2019: PDP Hails IBB’s Declaration on Buhari,
Says Its Repositioned Platform Ready for a New National Consensus

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the declaration by former President Ibrahim Babangida that President Muhammadu Buhari should not seek a re-election in 2019 as apt and yet another pointer to the fact that Nigerians across divides have reached a consensus against President Buhari and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

This is just as the party commended the former military President for admonishing the APC’s attempt to use its phoney restructuring agenda as a decoy for wooing voters ahead of 2019 election.

The party said General Babangida’s position on the need for a dynamic, nationalistic and development-driven leadership is a direct reflection of the feeling and aspirations of Nigerians and completely captures the direction of the repositioned PDP for a better Nigeria.

PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement on Sunday said the fact that General Babangida’s declaration on President Buhari is coming on the heels of a similar declaration by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, has further vindicated PDP’s position on the misrule of the Buhari administration and the APC.

The PDP further described as an understatement, General Babangida’s reflection that the Buhari administration and its APC has polluted the nation’s “leadership actuality” adding that it is not unmindful of the yearnings of Nigerians to use the platform of the repositioned PDP to propagate a new coalition that would return the much desired new atmosphere in the polity by producing the president that will acceptable to the majority of Nigerians.

It is now obvious to all that the time has come for all Nigerians to jettison all personal interests and divisive tendencies and rally forces under a truly national platform as now embodied in the PDP to rescue our dear nation from total collapse.

In line with the new consensus for the election of a truly Nigerian President in 2019, the repositioned PDP is completely open as the epicentre of the much desired new broad-based political engagement of all Nigerians in their aspirations irrespective of creed, tribe or class.

The repositioned PDP presents that credible platform, re-engineered with best democratic standards for the unhindered accommodation of all interests from all parts of the country in our collective search for a new beginning.

We, therefore, urge all Nigerians, particularly our leaders across the board, to join forces with the PDP to once again return the nation to its pride of place as a thriving economy and a truly democratic nation come 2019.

Signed:

Kola Ologbondiyan
National Publicity Secretary”
