The Governor of Akwa Ibom State,
Emmanuel Udom, has said Nigerians were eagerly awaiting the return of PDP at
the Federal and state levels come 2019.
The Governor’s statement followed
yesterday’s statement by former President, Olusegun Obasanjo that both the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the All Progressives Congress, APC, have
failed Nigerians.
Obasanjo had also insisted that
it was clear that both the ruling and the main opposition parties have nothing
to offer, adding, “I, therefore, will gladly join such a Movement when one is
established as Coalition for Nigeria, CN, taking Nigeria to the height God has
created it to be. From now on, the Nigeria eagle must continue to soar and fly
high.
“CN, as a Movement, will be new,
green, transparent and must remain clean and always active, selflessly so.”
But addressing members of the PDP
in his state, the Governor reminded Nigerians that a bag of rice, which was
sold at N6,000 when PDP left power in 2015 now goes for N18,000; Toyota Corolla
car has skyrocketed from N3.5 million to N20 million, and Naira to a dollar
from N186/N188 to N350.
Governor Udom added, “There is
nothing any other party can do for Akwa Ibom people. People keep saying that
PDP government destroyed Nigeria, but they inherited rice at N6,000 and now its
N18,000, Toyota Corolla N3.5 million, now over N20 million and exchange rate
N186/N188, now its over N350 to $1.
“Nigerians are eagerly awaiting
PDP’s return in 2019. Our problem is that we don’t know what we have until we
lose it.
“Many who may be condemning PDP
today, have the party’s membership card in their pockets, because they can’t
risk going over to other parties.”
