The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is facing an internal crisis, which the Factional Chairman of its Board of Trustees, BoT, Mao Ohuabunwa, attributes to years of disregard for the party’s constitution and the personal ambitions of some leaders. In a recent interview on Arise Television, Ohuabunwa stated that the party’s internal conflicts are self-inflicted, resulting from a persistent failure to adhere to its founding rules.

According to Ohuabunwa, the party’s woes stem from its failure to obey its own laws and rules, which has led to the current state of affairs. He emphasized that if the party had followed its constitution, it would not be facing the current challenges. The former lawmaker, who now leads a parallel PDP BoT, noted that his faction was formed to recover and reconcile the party, which he believes has lost its moral direction.

Ohuabunwa explained that many of the crises within the PDP are driven by personal ambition and greed, with some members treating the party as a means to achieve their presidential aspirations. He emphasized the need for the party to return to its founding principles and adhere to its constitution to overcome its current challenges.

The PDP has been facing internal conflicts and power struggles, which have affected its ability to function effectively. The party’s leadership has been criticized for its handling of these conflicts, with some members calling for reforms and a return to the party’s core values. Ohuabunwa’s comments highlight the need for the party to address its internal issues and work towards reconciliation and unity.

The PDP’s internal crisis has significant implications for the party’s future and its ability to contest upcoming elections. The party’s leadership must take steps to address the underlying issues and work towards a resolution to restore the party’s moral compass and credibility. As the party moves forward, it is essential to prioritize adherence to its constitution and core values to ensure its long-term viability and success.
