The rank and file of the People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP) will soon be upscaled nationwide as more people are expected to decamp to it from other political parties across the country.<\/p>\n

Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal<\/a> of Sokoto state made this observation on Tuesday during the third leg of his consultation visit to decide his options on seeking the PDP ticket to run for the position of President next year, in Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State.<\/p>\n

Governor had visited Bamaina, Jigawa state and Gusau, Zamfara state.<\/p>\n

Gov. Tambuwal, accompanied yesterday by the former Governor of Sokoto, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, former Deputy Governor of the state, Alhaji Mukhtar Shagari and former minister of power, Engr Bello Suleiman, appreciated the unity of purpose displayed by the Kebbi state PDP stalwarts and followers during the recent local government election held in the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll political watchers in the country on Saturday witnessed the political sagacity of the state PDP, which is united. Your vigilance and cohesion in the realization of such feat will help the party on the national front,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

He said it was important for PDP stakeholders to unite and cooperate. \u201cThis will attract more people, who are already on the verge of crossing over to it,\u201d the Governor said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe PDP in Kebbi state is united. The PDP in Kebbi state is compact and strong. I appeal to you to work together as a family to attract more members from the opposition because there is a lot of trouble in the other house.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know they will leave and come here. When they come I implore you to be very magnanimous so that when they come, you should be accommodating and carry everybody along, so that together, God willing, we shall win the elections here In Kebbi State and in Nigeria come 2023,\u201d Governor Tambuwal said.<\/p>\n

Turning to the situation in the country under the control of the APC, Tambuwal lamented for the umpteenth time, that Nigeria is on the verge of collapse as a result of the preponderance of insecurity, debilitating healthcare system, poverty, falling standard of education, corruption and other ills that have become the hallmark of the APC administration thus far.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former Sokoto State Governor Bafarawa, who described the visit as homecoming, expressed happiness with the integrity displayed by the Kebbi state chapter of the PDP during the local councils\u2019 election held in the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re here for consultation between you and our own who seeks the coveted office of President in Nigeria God willing,\u201d Bafarawa added, urging supporters to sustain their prayers and backing for Governor Tambuwal.<\/p>\n

Recounting Tambuwal\u2019s antecedents, as Speaker of the House of Representatives and Governor of Sokoto state, he said \u201cthis is why we are backing you to fly the PDP Presidential ticket in 2023.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe success of this quest is predicated upon the choice of party delegates. We\u2019re sure Kebbi PDP delegates will readily vote for him,\u201d just as he recalled that in 2019 three of them- himself, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki (SAN) and Tambuwal all sought the same position of flying the PDP Presidential flag; and, Tambuwal emerged second.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, he posits, both him and Turaki, who supported Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who clinched the ticket then, are now ready to work for Tambuwal.<\/p>\n

In his welcome address, former acting National Chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Bello Halliru Muhammad expressed gratitude to Gov. Tambuwal and his entourage for the visit, pointing out that Nigeria needs a competent, trustworthy and courageous leader, the like of Tambuwal.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigeria is in bad shape after years of (misrule) by President Muhammadu Buhari. The country has never been so divided along with ethnic and religious affiliations like now. If a worthy person doesn\u2019t take over it risks breaking apart,\u201d Alhaji Halliru noted.<\/p>\n

In his remarks, the Kebbi state PDP Chairman, Alhaji Bello Usman Suru, said: \u201chistorically we in Kebbi are one with the people of Sokoto. You don\u2019t need to campaign here. All the state delegates, chairmen of local government wings and members of the executives in the state will vote for you.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen it is time to decide who becomes our party\u2019s Presidential candidate, we may exceed even Sokoto state. I say this because there may be some black legs in Sokoto, but here we are behind you one hundred per cent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
