The National Caretaker Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, led by the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Minister, Nyesom Wike, and Senator Samuel Anyanwu, has felicitated Nigerians, particularly members of the National Executive Committee, NEC, Board of Trustees, BoT, and members of the party on the occasion of the Christmas and New Year celebrations.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday, the National
Publicity Secretary, National Caretaker Working Committee, Jungudo Mohammed
called on Nigerians to use this festive season to pray for the continued growth
and development of the country, as well as for the stability of the party.
The Wike-led PDP urged members loyal to it to reflect deeply
on the issues confronting the PDP with a view to making positive new year
resolutions that will foster unity, stability and progress.
The party encouraged members to continue to support the
Abdulrahman Mohammed-led Caretaker Committee, which, according to it, remains
steadfast in restoring order, cohesion, and credibility within the party.
The party said it is no longer news that the Oyo Convention
which produced Kabiru Turaki as the party’s National Chairman has been rejected
by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, calling on party
members to carefully, objectively, and dispassionately examine the facts affecting the party, rather
than falling prey to falsehoods and propaganda being peddled by certain groups.
“Their earlier claims of being recognised by INEC have now
been clearly exposed as false. Their stock-in-trade remains lies and propaganda, and they have now resorted to
sponsored attacks aimed at intimidating INEC.
“We wish to state unequivocally that we are party leaders
who have utmost respect for constitutional provisions, subsisting court
judgments, and the rule of law.
“Party members and the general public are further advised to
disregard the insinuations and deliberate attempts to mislead Nigerians by
suggesting that the issues currently affecting the PDP are not justiciable.
“If indeed these matters were merely internal party affairs,
why then did the same individuals earlier approach the Oyo State High Court for
Judicial Intervention?
“We also note that Governor Seyi Makinde, through his recent
media chat, unfortunately, has succeeded only in indicting himself. The
interview was not just uninspiring and replete with distorted facts,
confessional statements, envy, and an afterthought but a further demonstration
of a clear lack of understanding of the legal and constitutional issues
presently confronting the party. His comments should therefore be treated with
utmost caution.”
