ABUJA-The contemporary political party in Nigeria, The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has extended a hand of fellowship to Senate President Bukola Saraki, Kwara State Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed and the Nigerian Ambassador to South Africa, Alhaji Ahmed Ibeto, saying they would be welcomed to its fold.
The party said the coming of Senator Saraki, Governor Ahmed and Alhaji Ibeto could not have come at a better time when the nation requires the input of genuine patriots that will rescue it from “implosion.”
In a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, the PDP said “the harassment and intimidation that the duo of Senator Saraki and Governor Ahmed had suffered from the lords in the All Progressives Congress (APC) which they helped to build and nurtured to win elections,” was strange.
“Senator Saraki, in particular, has conducted the affairs of the Senate in reflection of the wishes of the silent majority of Nigerians and had emerged a hero of democracy.
“The party has no doubts that Senator Saraki, Governor Ahmed and Alhaji Ibeto will contribute immensely to the new order that engender good governance in our nation.
“The PDP calls on all Nigerians who are desirous of rescuing our nation from the incompetent administration of President Buhari to rally with party of choice, PDP,ahead of the 2019 elections,” the statement read in part.
