Mr Emmanuel Ogidi, a former National Vice Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party<\/a><\/strong> (PDP) South-South, has urged Nigerians to vote wisely in the 2023 general elections.<\/p>\n

Ogidi said this when he spoke with our correspondent in Abuja on Monday.<\/p>\n

The chieftain called on all Nigerians to shun sentiments and cast their votes based on performance of political parties and their candidates in the 2023 poll.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigerians, shine your eyes, shine your eyes; do not be deceived again. They were deceived before, so they should not be deceived again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Ogidi said that the All Progressives Congress<\/a> (APC)-led administration has failed to fulfill its electoral promises to Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2015, the APC pledged to fix Nigeria\u2019s power and security challenges in six months, but they have failed to do so in almost eight years,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said that the PDP was ready and had positioned itself to bring back the good times and relief for all Nigerians come 2023.<\/p>\n

Ogidi said that over the years, the PDP had delivered dividends of democracy to Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf voted into power in 2023, the PDP administration which will be led by former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar and Gov. Ifanyi Okowa will among others, deliver quality education and economic turnaround,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Ogidi, however, said that the crisis rocking the party would not affect its chances in the 2023 election, saying that all issues would be resolved soonest.<\/p>\n

He said that the party\u2019s primary focus was to salvage Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe PDP is the only vehicle to achieve a new Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
