State governors under the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) platform have pledged to provide the necessary platform for the party to return to power at the federal level in 2023.
The chairman of the PDP Governors Forum and Governor of Sokoto State, Governor Aminu Tambuwal, made the pledge on Sunday at a state banquet, hosted by the Akwa-lbom state government, before the forum meeting in Uyo.
Tambuwal said PDP governors would not disappoint Nigerians who are waiting for them to realize their aspirations for the party’s return to power in 2023.
“These star heads of PDP governors in their respective states and political generals are determined by the grace of God through your prayers, support and cooperation, to save Nigeria.
“It is a task that we must do for the glory of God and his glory alone.
“God on our side, we are determined as leaders to provide this platform for the emergence of another PDP leadership in this country by 2023,” Tambuwal said.
He urged all citizens, especially religious leaders, to continue praying for the country, especially regarding the security situation in the country.
“We need prayers. God is always there for his people and will never tire of Nigeria for his glory, ”Tambuwal added.
Earlier in his remarks, Governor Emmanuel Udom, welcoming the PDP governors to the state, told them that their people did not make a mistake in electing them to represent them.
Udom described the PDP governors as leaders with character and charisma.
PDP national legal adviser Emmanuel Enoidem, speaking on behalf of the PDP National Working Committee (NWC), said the PDP governors make the party proud of their performance in their respective states.
“Today, if there is any hope for democracy in Nigeria, it comes from the governors of the PDP because of their excellent performance in their states,” he said.
Enoidem advised the governors of the PDP to support these efforts to foster development in Nigeria.
He said that although the responsibilities ahead are enormous, the governors of the PDP must continue to work together to address the challenges facing the country.
The PDP governors present at the event were those of Akwa-lbom, Adamawa, Delta, Enugu, Rivers, Taraba, Sokoto, Bayelsa, Edo and the deputy governor of the Zamafara State.
