OLEH—IMMEDIATE  past Secretary to the Delta State Government, Mr  Ovuozourie Macaulay, has said that the Peoples Democratic Party,  PDP, has the credibility and defined road map for the socio-political and economic recovery of the country.

Macaulay, in a statement, described the disagreement experienced  in the past in PDP as a needed elixir for the unity of the party to face the challenges ahead.

Noting that the Supreme Court judgment affirming Senator Ahmed Makarfi, as the authentic chairman of the party was a unifying factor among PDP faithful across the country, he said:  “I am optimistic that lessons have been learnt which will put the party in a better position for future electoral victories.

“Now,  we know the authentic leader of our party. It is no longer in doubt that the PDP still has its credibility and defined road map for the socio-political and economic recovery of our great nation Nigeria and I am  pleased that the matter has come to an end and the party is back as indivisible family.”

“The judgment has taken us out of the wilderness but we can only get to the Promised Land by taking over in 2019. In the judgment, there is no victor no vanquish. It is a verdict that will bring our party together

“I thank God for this day of justice and May God bless Nigeria. I believe in our jurists. We may have issues with some individuals but the Nigerian judiciary deserves respect and commendation.”
