National Vice Chairman, South-South,
of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, has decried the
crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress, APC, saying that Nigerians will
beg the PDP to come back in 2019.
Ojougboh, Monday, at the South-South
secretariat of the PDP in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, said that the APC had
shown convincingly that it lacked coordination and ideology.
He said that a committee of the PDP
headed by Senator Ahmed Makarfi was at the PDP South-South secretariat to
receive memorandum on how the party can rebound ahead of 2019 general
elections.
He added that the PDP will not
succumb to any form of intimidation to lose its cases at the various election
tribunals in the South-South, insisting that the party won freely and fairly in
the elections.
“Rivers and Akwa Ibom states
tribunals are sitting in Abuja. No amount of intimidation will make the PDP
lose the elections it won freely and fairly in those states. Any move to rig us
out at the tribunals will be resisted,” he said.
He further reaffirmed the stand of
the PDP rejecting the appointment of Hajia Amina Zakari as acting Chairman of
the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
“We have said that the appointment of Zakari is
completely unacceptable to us. The example that ex-President Goodluck Jonathan
gave should be followed. We know that she is not apolitical,” he added.
