In spite of the crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the party has promised that all its members will be carried along in the yet to be announce 2023 elections campaign council.
National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Debo Ologunagba, said this in an interview with Daily Trust on Monday.
He also asked Nigerians should not to be worried that the campaign council was not in place days to the commencement of the campaign.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has slated September 28, 2022 for the official commencement of campaigns for the 2023 elections.
Ologunagba said before the announcement of the campaign council, some things ought to be put in place.
“PDP has a structure. We are organized, we have a way of doing our things, we follow our own procedures. We don’t just go ahead and overreach our processes. We cannot begin to announce anything before we have the National Executive Committee (NEC), I am not worried about it, we are ready and you can see us working together as a party.”
On whether the Rivers state Governor Nyesom Wike and his camp will be carried along because of the differences in the party, Ologunagba said “PDP is a party of leaders and followers, and stakeholders that are united and they are all working together, everybody who is a member of this party, critical stakeholders, all of us are working together.
“We have the same mission to Rescue and begin the hard work of rebuilding Nigeria. Everyone will be involved and will participate in a robust campaign that will usher in a PDP government at all levels in 2023.”.
He also confirmed that the National Working Committee (NWC) meeting will hold on Wednesday and NEC will hold on Thursday.
“We have NEC, so allow the NEC to do its job when they come out we will give you a communique, that is the procedure I don’t preempt NEC. When NEC ends we will give you a report so whatever happens you will hear it.”
