The PDP Governors’ Forum has urged Nigerians to reject the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying it is impossible for a party so “disorganised” to offer good governance to the people of Nigeria.
The governors’ appeal was disclosed in a communique after their meeting in Abia State on Wednesday.
Among other things, they reviewed the “excruciating hardship and suffering being meted out to Nigerians by a failed APC-led Federal Government; the near collapse of the APC as a viable political party, and the readiness of the PDP to take over and offer qualitative leadership options to rescue the nation.
In attendance were: Governor. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal of Sokoto State (Chairman), Governor Okezie Ikpeazu, Abia State (Vice Chairman), Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of Adamawa State, Governor Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State, Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State, Governor of Bayelsa State, Sen. Douye Diri, Governor of Benue, Samuel Ortom, Governor of Delta, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, Governor of Edo, Godwin Obaseki, Governor of Enugu, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Governor of Oyo, Oluseyi Abiodun Makinde, Governor of Rivers, Nyesom Wike, and Deputy Governor of Taraba State, Hon Haruna Manu.
