The State of the PDP and Nigeria
The discussions at the meeting were fueled by a shared concern over the current state of PDP and Nigeria as a whole. With the ruling APC government exploiting state institutions for its agenda, we find ourselves in a precarious situation where not only the PDP has suffered, but democracy itself is under siege.
The ability of stakeholders to guide the party in adherence to its Constitution, rules, and regulations has deteriorated, leading to chaos within their ranks. The founding fathers of the PDP envisioned a party that would play a pivotal role in not just national governance, but as a beacon of hope for the black race globally. Regrettably, that vision has become obscured, diminishing Nigeria’s stature on the world stage and overshadowing our influence as a leading voice within Africa.
The current condition of Nigeria is painful to witness. Today, our nation grapples with heightened insecurity, dwindling economic prosperity, and widespread corruption. It is evident that the promise of progress under the APC was nothing but a mirage, as the country is now engulfed in crises that have made life unbearable for the citizens we aim to serve.

Resolutions from the Meeting
In light of these pressing concerns, the PDP leaders resolved to take decisive action:
- Vote Out the APC: It is clear that the APC government, which rose to power under the guise of rescuing Nigeria, has turned into a national disaster. We must mobilize voters and ensure that they are aware of the catastrophic impact that continued APC leadership would entail.
- Address Developmental Collapse: All development indices that enhance the quality of life for our citizens have plummeted. The PDP must advocate for policies that prioritize the welfare of the Nigerian people, aiming to rebuild a nation that values comfort and opportunity for all.
- Revitalize the PDP: The present state of the PDP is a pale reflection of its former glory. We must instill discipline, unify our ranks, and reconnect with the values that once made the PDP a formidable force. It is crucial that we counter the tactics of intimidation, blackmail, and patronage that have driven allies away from our party.
A Call for Unity and Action

To realize these goals, we invite all committed PDP members and concerned Nigerians to join us in our coalition. Together, we can begin to reclaim our party’s position as a catalyst for change and deliver Nigeria from its current malaise.
The road ahead will not be easy, but it is a journey worth taking for the future of our beloved country. As we reflect on the discussions held during this pivotal meeting, let us remember that the strength of the PDP lies in our unity, our shared vision, and our unwavering commitment to the Nigerian people.
Conclusion
The time for complacency has long passed. Now is the time for all well-meaning Nigerians to rally behind a progressive agenda that seeks to restore dignity, prosperity, and democratic integrity to our nation. The PDP stands ready to lead this charge, but we cannot do it alone. Together, let us build a brighter future for all Nigerians.
