The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Debo Ologunagba, stated that Nigerians are keenly watching for the party to get its affairs in order.
Speaking to journalists on Wednesday about the preparations for the party’s national convention, scheduled for November 15 to 16, Debo Ologunagba highlighted the widespread interest Nigerians have shown in the event.
He emphasized that this enthusiasm reflects the public’s deep love and confidence in the PDP.
“Nigerians are eager to know what the PDP is doing to put itself together as a party, because they see the party’s vibrancy as the only way to guarantee the sustenance of democracy in the country.
“The forth coming national elective convention is critical to the sustenance of democracy in Nigeria and that explains the enthusiasm, the interest that Nigerians across board have in our party.
“We had 16 years of unbroken governance by the PDP. Nigerians believe that to be the glorious era in development and hope in this country.
“Under the PDP rule, our debts were paid. We had double-digit GDP growth. We had inflation contained. We had policies that are invested in people in their human capital development.
“We had an economy that was number one in Africa and by the time the PDP left government in 2015, we had over a $600 billion economy.
“Nigeria was then the number one destination for foreign capital investment,” he said.
According to him, party members were already keying into the 15 broad-based sub-committees of the convention to make it inclusive and successful.
Weighing in on the speculations that one of the PDP governors would soon defeated to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC,Debo Ologunagba said that PDP is more than an individual, adding that it can’t affect the convention.
Ologunagba also maintained that the PDP had concluded its Congress in Edo.
He said that the state congress was held on September 27 by a committee that was properly constituted by the party leadership, while the appeal panel was also set up to take care of any concern from the Congress.
Debo Ologunagba added that perhaps the purported congress was just a public show to justify the pay master of those behind the illegality.
