The outgoing National Caretaker
Committee Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Sen. Ahemed Markafi
has appealed to the incoming leadership of the party to ensure that PDP’s doors
remain wide open for both returnees and new members.
Makarfi made the call while
welcoming delegates at the PDP National Convention held on Saturday in Abuja.
He said this was imperative to
ensure that they were 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 were 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. .
Makarfi said that inspite of all
the challenges encountered by his led Committee, they were able to record some
achievements.
Some of the challenges according
to him, include litigation and inadequate finance as all but one of the bank
accounts inherited by the committee was garnished by various court judgements.
“The only bank account we have
had access to these past 18 months is one that had less than two million
naira.”
He said that inspite of all
constraints, the committee was able to lay a good foundation for the re
positioning the PDP, turning it into the beautiful bride coveted by all
discerning politicians.
