PDP is definitely set for a comeback

PDP WILL DEFINITELY PRODUCE NIGERIA'S NEXT PRESIDENT -AYU *As Gov. Wike hosts PDP governors to gala night National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Iyorchia Ayu has urged Nigerians to keep faith with the party that is poised to produce the next president of the country. He maintained that the current inept rule of the All Progressive Congress (APC) led Federal Government, which has pulled the country backwards economically has to be changed. Senator Ayu gave the assurance at the gala night event hosted by the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike for PDP governors at the Banquet Hall of Government House, Port Harcourt on Sunday night. The PDP national chairman emphasised that the APC leadership has been unable to harness the rich diversity of Nigerians into better fortunes that should strengthen the bond of brotherhood and promote peaceful coexistence. "Unfortunately, a very poor leadership has presented Nigeria at home and abroad as an extremely divided country. "We must change this narrative and the only way to change this narrative and harness not just the culture, but the environment and the richness therein, is to back the Peoples Democratic Party which is determined to produce a new leadership for this country." Senator Ayu also enthused that Nigeria will bounce back again with the PDP at the saddle because the project of rescuing the country and making it great is realisable. The PDP national chairman stated that the expected leadership they will offer at the national level will change the negative characteristics associated with the APC that have been used to deepen the divide among Nigerians in the country. "The PDP will definitely produce the next president and take the country back to the days when we were in power, when we cleared all foreign debts, when we were developing this country at reasonable speed. "When we became the richest country on the African continent. But today we are the poverty capital of the world. All that will change." In his welcome address, Governor Wike said the gala night event is a pride to the usual meeting of PDP governors that is rotational. He stated that such meetings have always been used to discuss salient issues of economy, political, and others that bothers on how to chart a virile Nigerian society. "It has been ritual for PDP governors to gather and meet and discuss about the welfare of the party. And this has been rotating from one state to the other." On his part, the Chairman of PDP Governors Forum and Governor of Sokoto, Alhaji Aminu Waziri Tambuwal said the PDP governors and other party leaders are already working in synergy towards rebuilding the party. He said the focus is to rescue Nigeria, which will also require all Nigerians of goodwill to join force with the PDP to achieve that goal. "All Nigerians of goodwill who believe in this country, who believe Nigeria is going the wrong direction, ought to join us. "And like I always say, there are two divides in Nigeria today. Those who are happy with the confusion because they are benefiting from what is happening at the centre, and those of us who are truly patriotic enough to disagree with the way our country is being governed and being run." "I appeal and beseech every Nigerian, even those in APC that are patriotic enough to join hands with us as we continue to march towards rescuing Nigeria together. "I believe it is our responsibility to do so, not for ourselves but for our younger ones and generation unborn." Governors present at the gala night were, Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri (Adamawa), Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom), Mohammed Bala (Bauchi), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu).

Chief CBN EZENDIGBO THE DETRIBALISED LEADER NIGERIAN'S DESERVES

EZENDIGBO THE DETRIBALISED LEADER NIGERIA DESERVES It is not only Nigerians but also bewildered foreigners who wonder aloud why a country so blessed with human and natural resources is not presently challenging at the top of the summit of global economic powers. Many reasons (for excuses) have been variously adduced to explain Nigeria's relative underdevelopment, ranging from political instability to its heterogeneity. The point of convergence among informed commentators, however, is that the missing variable has been quality leadership. Historically, no country had stumbled on development. Societies that have developed faster than others have invariably been principally blessed with detribalised, vibrant, visionary, selfless leaders, who worked hard to inspire their people to greater heights. As the legendry Prime Minister of Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew, once told a Nigerian admirer, the secret of his country's historic transformation from obscur...

My Stand on the Guinea Coup I, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, Member of Nigeria Parliament representing Ideato Federal Constituency

and Constitutional Democracy Advocate, strongly condemn the military coup in Guinea, while also emphasizing that the deposed President's actions warranted consequences. The President's disqualification of major opponents from contesting against him was a blatant disregard for democracy and the people's right to choose their leaders. Any illegal takeover of power, whether through hijacking the democratic process, manipulating the judiciary or parliament, or military overthrow, is unacceptable and illegal. Guinea should start anew, focusing on a fresh transition led by ECOWAS. The African Union and ECOWAS must prioritize the sanctity of democracy, ensuring inclusive and transparent participation and processes. I call for the deposed President's arrest and trial for treason, undermining the constitution, electoral process, and the people's power to choose. This serves as a warning to leaders attempting to subvert democracy. Democracy demands accountability, tran...

The Northern Youths Assembly for Good Governance believes that Senator Kalu's unprecedented life-changing projects executed as a senator representing Abia North Senatorial District are a testament to the fact that he is capable of superintending over a Senate that will come up with legislation capable ...
