Struggling Nigeria Yearns for PDP’s Return: Chairmanship Aspirant
Conrad Utaan, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chairmanship aspirant, has lamented the dire economic situation in Nigeria, saying the country is eagerly awaiting the opposition party’s return to power.
In a stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja, Utaan expressed concerns that barely any household in Nigeria remains unaffected by President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms. He warned that Nigerians are yearning and crying for the PDP’s return, but claimed that this can only be achieved if the party’s leadership and internal crisis are resolved.
Utaan emphasized that the PDP must put its house in order before it can effectively address the country’s crisis. He promised to play a key role in revitalizing the party if it chooses him as its new national chairman.
The defection of PDP members loyal to Governor Siminalayi Fubara to the Action People’s Party has also raised concerns in Rivers State. Utaan urged the National Executive Committee to consider returning the seat of the PDP national chairmanship to the North Central following the exit of Iyorchia Ayu.
Iortyom, the former Publicity Secretary of the Benue PDP, shared Utaan’s sentiment, calling for unity and reconciliation among party stakeholders. He praised Utaan’s ability to maintain peace within the party, stating that he would restore peace in Rivers State if given the opportunity.
Will the PDP’s leaders heed Utaan’s warning and work towards uniting the party to potentially return to power in the 2027 elections?
