You're Losers Riding On A Tiger's Back, Soon To End Up In Its Belly-Group Trolls PDP NWC, Govs

Arising from the recent meeting of Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the party's National Working Committee, NWC, which took place in Jos, the Plateau State capital, a pro-PDP group has thrown shades on them over what it describes the false impression of equating their selfish interest with the greater interest of the party.

The group, PDP Collectives Forum, PCF, made the assertion in a press statement on Sunday signed by its National Convener Barr. Michael Omini.

According to the statement, the soul and conscience of the PDP still reside in the purview of the founding fathers of the party, adding that “members of the PDP should not be worried about whatever decision was taken at the PDP Governors Forum and NWC meeting in Jos. They are all losers and do not mean well for the party.”

The group insisted that while the National Working Committee of the PDP and the governors of the party continue to dash the hopes and expectations of party members across the country on account of how they make the PDP lay prostrate to the manipulation of the ruling APC, “members of our great party must know that these governors are out there for their own inordinate ambitions, and care less about the health of the party or the interest of members of the party.”

The statement reads further: “ We do not have confidence and trust in the PDP Governors as they lack the courage and guts to take any meaningful decisions that will move the party, and indeed, the country forward.

“They are not honest with themselves and the party,; they have an inordinate deal with the ruling APC and what they are up to is about their tenure protection.

“We however wish to remind them that they are only riding on a tiger’s back and sooner or later they will end up in its belly.

“They need to learn from the experiences of what became the end of those who sold the soul of the PDP away in Lagos State. The same disgraceful end awaits all of them in the nearest future.

“Be that as it may, we will not sit idly by and let them mortgage the future of the party that the founding fathers birthed and which we have also worked hard to build.

“The truth is that majority of the party members across the states are still with the party because of the founding fathers like Atiku Abubakar, Sule Lamido , Prof . Jerry Gana and a host of others. When the people talk of the PDP days, they refer to the days of these founding fathers, not these current buccaneers who only wear the mask of the PDP colours but whose actions and inclinations are more like the oppressive ruling APC party.

“For the avoidance of any doubt, no serious loyal party members will follow Wike and Damagun to the trap that APC /Tinubu are using the current National Working Committee of the PDP to ensnare the party.

“The current NWC functions more like undertakers of the PDP who are desperate to burry the party alive in exchange for their filthy lucre.

“The days ahead will redefine the future of Nigeria’s politics whether we are a multi-party flourishing democracy or we end up as a cosmetic one-party system. Certainly, the terms of that aspiration cannot be left to these clowns who are eager to trade the future of our democracy for their sordid political agenda.

“These governors and NWC led by Damagun are testing the resolve of the people. It does not matter to them how poorly the APC has managed the country and how the people are groaning under the weight of harsh economic and security conditions in the country. What matters to them is to keep the PDP away from being a viable opposition, but as a corruption milling machine that continues to feed their greed.

“This is not the spirit of the PDP, a party that stood firm to fight military dictatorship and was able to restore democratic governance in our country.

“The PDP and its founding fathers, many of whom are still politically active today will not allow the party become a sleaze bag for some unscrupulous people.”
