PDP will return to power in 2019, Delta PDP chair
(Nigeria) Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Delta
State Mr Kingsley Esiso, has said “The main opposition party in the country
will in 2019 take back the reins of governance at the centre.”
He said, “Come 2019,
we not only intend to return our Miracle Working Governor to Government House,
but by the grace of God and the goodwill of the Nigerians, we intend to produce
a president of PDP extraction to Aso Rock, in order to change the change that
is presently so negative, so deceitful and so unpopular.”
Esiso at the inauguration of the newly elected local
government chairmen of the party, urged party leaders to be fair, just and
equitable.
“You are coming on board at a very critical time in the
history of our great party, a time when our party is in the opposition at the
centre and therefore the need for us to be more proactive in terms of our
dealings with members of our party and the electorate, a time when the economy is seriously
nose-diving, and therefore, the sources of revenue to run the party cannot be
as it used to be, so you must be more creative in running the activities of the
party.
“A time when the people are becoming more aware and more
politically sophisticated, therefore the need to increase our tempo of contact,
reconciliation and mobilization with our members and the public, as we must
always see ourselves as advocates of the programmes and policies of government,
working to bring our people closer to the activities of government. This, we
must do by continuously sensitizing and educating our members and non-members
of our party in order to constantly keep them informed of happenings in the
political space.”
He appealed to the chairmen to work together for the
interest of the party.
“There is the need for you to have regard and respect for
various leaders that populate your different local government areas, but please
do not and I repeat, do not tie yourself to any particular leader as that will
not be the direction of the party under my watch.
“As local government chairmen, it is your duty and
responsibility to call party meetings at your local government areas, this you
are expected to do not less than twice a month. The need to hold regular
meetings cannot be overemphasized. I urge you to take this very seriously and
pass this message to the ward chairmen.
“As party chairmen, you must take the social activities of
our members seriously, whenever there is need to go and rejoice with any of our
member or there is need to go and stay or stand with any of our member, we
should mobilize our party men and women to do so,” he added.
