From John Bassey, Gusau
The People Democratic Party PDP Governors Forum (PDP-GF) has charged supporters and members across the country to remain resolute and committed to the cause of the party.
Presenting a communique to journalists after a crucial meeting in Gusau, Zamfara State, the main opposition party boasted that recent mass defection and confusion allegedly orchestrated in some quarters have not diminished the solid grassroots base.
Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed Abdulkadir, who briefed journalists at the Government House in Gusau said the meeting extensively deliberated on the state of the nation, the security situation, the erosion of democratic values, as well as ongoing efforts to reposition the party and make adequate preparations for its forthcoming national convention.
The Forum thanked members and supporters of the PDP nationwide for their steadfast loyalty in the face of serious intimidation and untold anti-democratic actions of the APC-led Federal Government in the last bye-election.
It commended the resilience of PDP leaders and members in overcoming orchestrated defections, stressing that such distractions cannot diminish the party’s strong grassroots, urging members and supporters of our Great Party, as well as the entire citizenry, to hold fast to the vision and principles of the PDP, in spite of the growing intimidation of the opposition by the government in power.
According to the communique, “this sad situation should only be seen as the sign of the desperation of a political party with no agenda, no vision and doomed to face inevitable rejection by the masses.
