> After reading Senator Abba Moro’s statement, one clearly understands what it means to be a committed party loyalist who protects the interests of his party. This stands in sharp contrast to the expelled Wike, whose mission since his appointment by the APC has been to recruit individuals within the PDP in order to undermine and destroy the party.
How on earth can Wike tell members of the Reconciliation Committee that the PDP must not field a presidential candidate in order for there to be peace? Such a position is both absurd and destructive. May the peace of God remain far from all those who have aided Wike in the destruction of the PDP.
*READ SEN ABBA MORO’S HEART FELT STATEMENT ABOUT PDP*
In a powerful demonstration of party discipline and unwavering commitment, the Senate Minority Leader, Senator Abba Moro, has declared that he and his other colleagues at the Senate remain unshakeably rooted in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He made the declaration during a consultative meeting with the National Working Committee (NWC), led by the National Chairman, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, SAN.
Senator Moro reaffirmed the commitment of other remaining Senators elected on the platform of the PDP at the National Assembly, despite the pressures of poaching by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Addressing the NWC members and party stakeholders, Senator Moro noted that despite the current challenges facing the opposition, the PDP remains the only viable platform for true democratic governance in Nigeria.
“I want to inform you Mr Chairman, that many of us here are not poor or desperate politicians. We are in PDP to stay. We are not in PDP for the sake of using the platform to win elections, and certainly not fixated on the 2027 elections. So, no amount of intimidating scenarios will push us out of PDP”- Senator Moro stated.
He advised the newly elected members of the National Working Committee (NWC), to rally behind other leaders to ensure unity and cohesion in the Party.
“…the National Convention has come and gone. So, this responsibility beholds on us, especially you (National Chairman), and other members of the NWC to salvage the situation. Yours is a very herculean task”.
In his response, the National Chairman, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, SAN, thanked the Distinguished Senators for taking time out of their busy schedule to attend the meeting.
“It is important for me to state here that, our Distinguished Senators as leaders as they are, have been interacting with us on several occasions at different fora on matters relating to pulling this Party out of the woods. Our goal is to save this country from anti-democratic forces and salvage our multiparty democracy. The 2027 general elections is not about defections, but about Nigerians” Turaki said.
The National Chairman, Tanimu Turaki again commended Senator Moro and his colleagues at the National Assembly for their principled stance. He described the Senators as “pillars of the party” whose loyalty serves as a template for others during these trying times for the nation’s democracy.
In attendance were the Senate Minority Leader, Senator Abba Moro, his Deputy, Senator Lere Oyewumi, former National Organising Secretary, Senator Austin Akobundu, other Senators and members of the National Working Committee (NWC).
