…Says you can’t realize ambition without party
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Senate Caucus, on Thursday, took some critical decisions to save the party from self destruction, following the prolonged rancour bedeviling the party for some time now.
The Senate Minority Leader, and leader of the Caucus, Senator Abba Moro (Benue South) gave an insight into some of the resolutions reached while briefing journalists in Abuja.
Moro said, “after surveying recent happening in the recent times within the party, we have resolved as Senate Caucus of the PDP to set an extended caucus of the party involving some former governors, leaders of the Senate Caucus and some leaders of the party to interface with the various organs of the party with a view to resolving all matters that affect sustainability, survival and existence of the party.
“PDP Senate Caucus resolved to undertake every effort that is necessary to ensure the survival of the PDP.
“Consequently, the Caucus resolved to advise all party members that have cases in the court to withdraw such cases to make room for a more robust political resolution of the crises in the party, especially the desire to return to constitutional order for the party”.
He said the “PDP remains the only and one formidable opposition in this country. We must be ready as a party to provide an alternative platform to Nigerians for good governance.
“On factionalisation of the party the leader of the Caucus, Senator Abba Moro, Senate Minority Leader said “in the strict sense of it, the party is not factionalised, there are only contending tendencies within the party. This is what we want to bring together because we cannot afford to be drifting apart in this trying moment for Nigerian nation.
“On personal ambition of members of the party which is affecting the fortunes of the party, Moro said in asking everybody to withdraw cases from the courts, it entails making sacrifices, adding that “personal ambitions can only be achieved when there is a PDP that can offer us the platform to realize personal ambitions.
He said that he expected anyone that had ambition to run for office in the current situation should “sheath the sword and make way for a peaceful resolution in the part because if there is no party you cannot realise your ambition on the platform of the party”.
