The National Chairman of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus says the party has come to deliver Nigerians from the ‘nuclear nepotism’ form of government currently being practiced by the President Muhammadu Buhari – led administration.
According to a statement released by the Media Adviser to the PDP Chairman, Mr. Ike Abonyi in Abuja on Wednesday, Secondus stated this when he and members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) met with the party’s caucus at the National Assembly on Tuesday night.
While describing the All Progressives Congress (APC) government as a monumental disaster, Secondus said that all hands must be on deck to save the nation from exploding on the keg of gunpowder it was currently sitting on.
Secondus said: “I have come with members of the NWC of our party to thank you for the mandate you gave us at the successful National Convention last year and to charge you to redouble your efforts for the eventual humiliation of the APC in 2019.
“The National Assembly is the centre of national politics. Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gun powder waiting to explode, only the PDP can save it.”
He said Nigerians are experiencing what they never bargained for in the 32 months the APC has been in power as people were being killed on a daily basis while ‘nuclear nepotism’ has become the order of the day.
He added: “This is the time for all to stand up to save this country and all eyes are on the PDP to lead the way, I am ready and determined even to be arrested for us to regain our liberty in this land.
“What we have ruling Nigeria today at the Villa is a broken government. Spiritually, the APC has already left the Villa, what we must finetune is the physical accomplishment.”
Secondus further charged his National Assembly members to brace up for the challenges ahead since they were leaders of the grass roots in their various constituencies.
Tuesday’s meeting was attended by all the PDP members in the National Assembly including the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu and Senator Godswill Akpabio, the Senate Minority Leader.
