Buhari Winning in 2015 Stopped PDP From Being Dictatorial - Iyorchia Ayu | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Professor Iyorchia Ayu, the newly elected National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has asserted that the PDP would have towed the path of dictatorship had the party not lost the 2015 presidential elections.

Ayu who stated this while addressing journalists in Abuja on Saturday, said also his priority is to bring power back to the PDP.

He further said the zoning of the party’s executive positions and electorial offices was merely a tactical decision.

He said;
“My priority is for the party to take power. Political parties priorities is always to win. Therefore, I reviewed the reasons why we lost power in 2015 and going to work to unite the party, to sharpen the programmes of the party, market the party to the Nigerian electorate in a way that they will be prepared to vote for us.
“In a democracy, it’s normal for political parties to lose power. If we didn’t lose power, may be, we would have become a dictatorship or become complacent.

“To believe in democracy…there must have been something we were doing wrong or must have done wrong that the Nigerian electorate shifted. But today, if we didn’t lose power, they won’t experience the policies and programmes of the other party. They would think there is something better than us. Thank God, we lost power. Today, Nigerian people know better.

“And I believe we will re-energize the party and take over power again, not only at the centre, but in Nigeria, there is a lot of attention taking power at the federal level. There was time PDP was controlling about 20 states. That has been reduced to 13.

“We hope and pray and we will work very hard to increase that number from 13 to control over 20 states, possibly, we will win the federal government. So, that is really my vision for this party. We will unite the party as I have said and I believe that very soon, we will have a very united, a very focused political party.”

Ayu also said a reconciliatory process would be embarked on to reconcile all intra-party crisis within the PDP, based on reports submitted by the Bukola Saraki-led committee.

The former Senator conclusively said the party is expecting the defection of high profile individuals as witnessed by the return of former governors Olusegun Mimiko and Rashidi Ladoja.
