Mu’azu accuses APC of sponsoring false reports, says no rift in PDP




The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Adamu Mu’azu, yesterday said that there was no rift within the National Working Committee (NWC) under his leadership.
He also accused opponents of the party of sponsoring mischievous reports to derail the party in its quest to win the Osun State governorship election.
Mu’azu, in a statement signed by his Special Assistant on ICT, Mr. Akin Oyegoke, was responding to inquiries over rumours that he is brutal in managing party affairs.
He said, “The rumour is the handwork of the opposition to distract us from campaigning in Osun State and to also change our focus in our quest to regain all the losses of the PDP. You can see the numerous achievements the PDP has recorded so far since I assumed office as chairman, and, I want to promise you one thing, we will not stop, we will not be deterred, but will continue to work for the interest of all Nigerians.”
The PDP National Chairman also enumerated the gains of the party both internally and externally and advised the opposition to change their tactics and follow the line of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan who is focused and determined to transform Nigeria.
“Our party is moving from strength to strength as you can see. The PDP is the only political party still standing strong, has never changed its name, has remained one and the only party with a viable national spread. Before I came in as chairman, some aggrieved party members left the party for one or two reasons, but now, the story has changed.
“We welcomed them back into the party and I wish to call on all our members to remain united and prepare for the general elections in 2015. Look at our victory in Ekiti State where the sitting governor congratulated our candidate, Mr. Ayo Fayose and accepted defeat because of the overwhelming support Ekiti people gave to him at the poll.”
Mu’azu reiterated his strong belief that the PDP will win resoundingly in the forthcoming Osun poll as well as the general elections.
The party had disclosed that it will hold its mid-term convention after the Ramadan fast to ratify Mu’azu as chairman of the party.

The gale of defections in the National Assembly last week was followed by an advice from no one else than Sen. Abu Ibrahim that the Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki as well as the Speaker of the House of Representatives Yakubu Dogara and others in the fold of the All Progressives Congress APC that are still masquerading in the party should resign their membership of the party. This call which also implies that they resign their positions as leaders of the various arms of the National Assembly is yet to be complied with by those concerned as at the time of writing this piece Whatever their reasons for still staying put in the party may be, the fact of the matter is that their continued stay in the party has become a sore which must be extricated from the body.  As I watched through the proceedings of the defections on national television, I wept for the country for producing such leaders that lack morality despite all the party has given them politically which they ordin...
