Niger State Governor, Dr. Muazu Babangida Aliyu has said that the Peoples Democratic Party lost the elections at the national and state level because the party failed to honour the Single term agreement.
Aliyu while speaking as a special guest of honour at the convocation lecture organised by the Federal University of Technology, Minna, yesterday said “Many of us saw it coming, when I reminded us that we had an agreement for one term, they nearly crucified me, and when I led the G7 Governors, they did not do what we wanted them to do until five members left, and they later did what we asked them to do.
“I recall also that when APC came on board, I was the first person to say I was very happy that now we have a strong party to put PDP on its toes and many people were asking me that, are you really a member? Up to the last election, my accusation has always been that I was a supporter of APC and now you have seen the result.
“Nigerians wanted a change and Nigerians got the change. You will have many reasons; one, PDP has been around for 16 years and there is no way you will be around for 16 years and you will not make mistakes; so there are many reasons that will be put together and we will be able to understand and guide people as to next time, these are some of the things you need to do”
