Bruised and humiliated by the outcome of the
presidential and National Assembly elections,
the national chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), Dr Adamu Mu’azu,
has declared that the electoral loss has taught
the party a great lesson.
This comes as the leadership of PDP also met
with some of its governors, governorship
candidates and some state party chairmen
with the aim of restrategising to stem further
humiliation.
The meeting, which started at 11:30am and
ended at 2:15pm, was held behind closed
doors; even aides of the party chieftains were
asked to leave the meeting immediately after
the national anthem was sung to signal the
commencement of the meeting.
The meeting was chaired by the national
chairman, Dr Adamu Mu’azu, with most of
their governorship candidates in attendance.
The meeting, a party source revealed, was
aimed at restrategising to stop a possible
bandwagon effect of the presidential and
National Assembly election losses in the April
11 governorship election.
“We are mindful of the bandwagon effect after
the presidential election. We are planning how
to adopt a new strategy and intensify our
push to ensure our governorship candidates
are not floored at the election,” a party
source, who pleaded anonymity, said.
The atmosphere at the party’s national
headquarters was, however, was downcast as
the usual bubbly activity that accompanies
the visit of its chieftains to the party’s
national secretariat was noticeably watered
down.
The party is, however, considering the option
of approaching the election tribunal to
complain about the manner of its loss. It
claims there were irregularities that worked
against its presidential candidates.
PDP national chairman, Adamu, Mu’azu, in a
statement, said: “Presently, our nation is at
the threshold of history and its defining
moment for the future. As you are aware, in
the early hours of Wednesday, April 1, 2015,
the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) returned the candidate of
the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari, as winner of the 2015
presidential election.
“However, we have received reports of serious
irregularities that characterized the conduct of
the election and we shall channel our protests
to the appropriate quarters in line with our
profound respect for the rule of law and
democratic ethos.
“What is paramount to us is the survival of
our democracy, the unity, peace and progress
of our dear nation and the happiness of all
our people. Nigeria is bigger than any political
party, individual or group and her overall
interest must be our priority at all times.”
The party also commended flag bearer,
President Goodluck Jonathan, for his heroic
act in conceding to the voice of the people,
saying the action stands him out as a true
democrat and a statesman.
“We also congratulate the APC flag bearer,
Gen. Muhammadu Buhari for his resilience
and victory in this election while wishing him
success in the onerous task of leading our
nation once again,” he said.
He, however, declared the PDP was not down
but a “redefining moment”.
“Rather than demoralize us, this election has
afforded us great lessons and we are now
more than ever before reinvigorated for the
race ahead.
“As we return to the electorate for the April
11, 2015 governorship and state assembly
elections, we go recharged with faith in our
heart. We assure all our candidates in the
remaining elections that the party will stand
with you, campaign with you and work
vigorously to ensure your total victory at the
polls,” he stated, even as he called on the
party faithful to remain steadfast and vote in
the party’s flag bearers in the remaining
elections.

u play ur part well now is for reconciliation

PDP should allow this mazu guy ........he is good

Ok

The best thing to do anyway since things have fallen apart and centre holding no more.

Like GEJ said, PDP leaders and supporters should not take the election result as a defeat but rather a victory for Democracy and Freedom. Nigeria's Democratic Experiment is now a model for Africa and the world at large. A development which the PDP government was responsible for.

Satan is suspending Nigeria's fortune for awhile. God will soon restore the Glory. Let the tribes be careful.

ALL THESE BLA BLA FROM MUAZU ARE LIES. HE WAS INSTRUMENTAL TO GEJ LOSS AT THE POLLS.. HE KNEW WHAT THE NORTH WANTED ALL ALONG AND WAS CLANDENSTICALLY WORKING FOR THE NORTH AND APC DESPITE IN PDP. AND DECEIVING GEJ..MUAZU IS A TRAITOR.

Traitor!
North cum southwest conspiracy=change
I pray d greedy nature of a yorubaman(tinubu) won't affect d "change"
Only time will tell!

If the defeat thought you a lesson then learn from it.

PDP pls stop complaining and focus on April 11 before you lose all ur states to APC again.

Of course they can win more votes than presidency election with better planning.

pdp is still strong party.

pdp has better structure but inefficient governments.
