A former Governor of Niger State, Muazu Babangida Aliyu, has called on the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to immediately start preparing for the 2023 general elections,
In his 2021 New Year message, which he personally signed on Friday, the former Governor said that the PDP lost the 2015 and 2019 Presidential elections, as a result of indiscipline.
His words: “The build up for the next general elections starts now. We must all resolve to redeem PDP now, or risk being confined to the dustbins of history.
“The PDP lost elections in 2015 and 2019, because of the non-commitment of some of our members, and due to the indiscipline of some interest blocs within the party.
“As the Leader of our great party in Niger State, I seek to encourage all of us to remain committed, resilient, and unwaveringly resolute to work as a team, and return PDP to power at both the centre and in Niger State.
“You must all know your rights. Stop being beggarly. Do not sell your votes and your future to political hawks. Nigeria can only get better if we all insist on making it so.
“All of us, men and women, especially our youths, must shun greed, indiscipline, lack of commitment, respect, and love for the party, and as well shun lust for money.
“2020 was indeed a year of great hardships, pains, turmoils, and tribulations, but in all, we must appreciate Allah’s mercies and the enablement He granted us to scale through.”
