PDP Should Mend Fences with the People – Ita Giwa

2 Min Read

Former Presidential Adviser on National Assembly Matters, Senator Florence Ita Giwa has urged Peoples Democratic Party Leaders to stop trading blames amongst themselves and mend fences with the people.

Ita-Giwa also stated that the dissolution of the National Working Committee of the party would be counterproductive.

In a statement, she said “People were brutalised at state levels. They were treated as outcasts. These are men and women who control bloc votes. They were forced out of the party and those who remained lost their enthusiasm.

“Governor’s are the leaders of the party in their states and I urge them to get down to work by reconciling aggrieved party members.

“Everybody has questions to answer. The president lost in their states but their governors won, so they should stop transferring aggressions.

“The issue is that APC has won election and the President has accepted gallantly so they should all go back to the people and mend fences. In fairness to some of them, they did very well but it should be noted that there are some leaders who are not governors but has chosen politics as a career and are willing to rebuild the party.

“What has happened is a lesson to incoming governors. They should allow internal democracy to thrive and to give respect to leaders and the electorates. “
