Frontline Peoples Democratic Party PDP stalwart in Rivers State Chief Barrister Dumo Lulu Briggs has restated his commitment to the Peoples Democratic Party in Rivers state. Chief Lulu Briggs contested the Rivers state governorship election under the PDP which eventually went to Chief Nyesom Wike a former federal minister.
Chief Dumo Lulu Briggs made this pronouncement after a stakeholders meeting he held with members of his campaign organisation, coordinators of the various LGAs as well as other stakeholders involved in his campaign train.
The meeting which witnessed a large turnout of his supporters saw clarion calls by most of the people that made speech urging him not to relent in his support for the party especially now that they need him most.  Speakers that contributed at the parley said it was imperative that he does not abandon the party at this time of need. Speaker after speaker while praising his leadership qualities said Dumo Lulu Briggs will be setting a good example to his followers by sticking to the party despite its failure to win the Presidential election of March 28th.
Reacting to the position of majority of those who spoke at the meeting, Chief Dumo Lulu Briggs said it was not in his character to leave a man when he is down. He said the fact that President Jonathan did not win the Presidential election does not mean that Rivers people should jump ship. He said it was imperative that Rivers people express their love for Mr. President by sticking to the Peoples Democratic Party and ensuring that it emerges victorious come April 11th 2015.
Chief Dumo Lulu Briggs said the events that occurred during the days of the primaries should be a lesson for all followers of the party stressing that all what led to the injustice during the primaries can best be tackled under the PDP and not the APC. “if I was thinking about my personal position I would have been in the APC considering the pressures I have received and the perceived injustice I got but been there wouldn’t have given me the opportunity to bring about the change my supporters need… this is not the basis of my being their leader” he posited.
He advised his followers to remain steadfast stating that “ Our dream to be in Government  House is not dead but alive”
