The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says despite losing control of the federal government to the All Progressives Congress, it still has the strength and spread, enough to make it regain pre-eminence at the centre.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, in a press statement on Sunday May 17, dismissed rumours that the party was contemplating a change of identity.
He, however, said that the party was willing to absorb any political party or association looking in the direction of merging with the PDP.
According to him, “We have good name, tradition and values. 16 fruitful years as the guardian of Nigeria’s democracy cannot be nullified by temporary setback.
“We shall rise beyond all and remain our rhythm. Our colour remains green white red and power still belong to the people.”
He then called on all the members of the party to ensure that they are not in any way distracted but stay focussed.
Mr Metuh also insisted that the unity, cohesion and regenerative capacity of the PDP is very much intact and election loss not withstanding, the party would bounce back.
The PDP lost the March 2015 presidential elections to the All Progressives Congress (APC), and by May 29 2015 the APC would formally take over government.
