Key figures in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido, former Senate President David Mark, and other prominent members, are reportedly set to leave the party. This was revealed in a communiqué issued after a meeting of Concerned PDP Leaders held in Abuja on Tuesday. As previously reported by DAILY POST, the party stalwarts had met behind closed doors to discuss the ongoing crisis rocking the main opposition party and explore possible solutions. Also in attendance were former governors Aminu Tambuwal (Sokoto), Babangida Aliyu (Niger), Liyel Imoke (Cross River), Sam Egwu (Ebonyi), and other senior party leaders. The concerned leaders lamented that the All Progressives Congress, APC, government, which “came into being on the false and evil propaganda, to save Nigeria from PDP is now a disaster to our nation and therefore must be voted out of power.” According to them, “all indices of development that support the comfort and quality of lives of the citizens have collapsed, and life is now hell in Nigeria.” The opposition leaders expressed regret that PDP, “which is organic with the discipline, capacity, and history to lead and save Nigeria, is now a shadow of its old self,” stressing that “the heatwave unleashed by the APC Federal Government through threats, blackmail and patronage has forced elected officers in government to abandon the PDP.” They called on all well-meaning PDP “members and other patriotic Nigerians to join the coalition.”
