The Chairman of the National
Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ahmed Makarfi, has
described the Party as a “beautiful bride” coveted by all discerning
politicians in the country.
According to him, so many members
of the Party who had left the PDP were coming back or making overtures,
signaling an imminent mass return ahead of 2019.
Makarfi made this known on
Saturday while delivering his address at the on-going PDP Convention in Abuja.
He said: “I want to humbly submit
that we have, despite all constraints, laid a good foundation for the
repositioning of our great party, turning it into the beautiful bride coveted
by all discerning politicians.
“There is no wonder therefore
that, so many people who at one point or the other were members of the party,
but who for one reason or another had to leave for some other parties, have
either been coming back or knocking at our doors.
“The party heartily welcomes them
back home and encourages them to feel well at home.
Makarfi further appealed to the
incoming leadership to ensure that PDP doors remain wide open for both
returnees and new members and to also ensure that they are not disadvantaged in
any way, just as it is also imperative that the loyalty, sacrifices, commitment
and dedication of those who stuck with the party through thick and thin are not
denigrated in any way.
“A level playing field must be
availed all members so that we avoid a situation in which we create many other
problems while trying to solve one.
“In words and actions, we must
continuously assure and reassure members that loyalty to the party does, indeed
pay and is rewarded,” he said.
