The PDP said on Wednesday that the general election in 2019 would be a battle to save Nigeria.
The National Publicity Secretary of the
PDP, Dayo Adeyeye, urged Nigerians not to see the 2019 election as a PDP
problem, but a Nigerian problem.
Adeyeye, who is a member of the Senator
Ahmed Makarfi-led PDP Caretaker Committee, spoke during a post-national
convention press briefing in Port Harcourt.
He added that the 2019 poll would be an encounter between Nigerians and those making life difficult for them.
“The 2019 (election) is a battle between
those in power and those that want to wrest it from them. It is a
battle between Nigerians and those who are making life difficult for
them; it is a battle to save the country.”
Adeyeye stated that Nigerians were aware
of those behind the crisis rocking the PDP, pointing out that those
seen on the stage were mere puppets.
“Some members allowed themselves to be used by some people that are in authority.
“Some of the people you see are mere
puppets, but those pulling the strings are behind. Nigerians know those
who are causing the crisis in the PDP,” he added.
Adeyeye said the idea to move the
convention to another venue so that delegates could elect their national
officers was turned down to avoid another disruption by security
agencies.
