The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared that none of its established organs is permitted to align with any particular presidential aspirant ahead of the 2019 general elections, saying its platform is open to all Nigerians to aspire to various elective offices in the land.

Despite the fact that former President Ibrahim Babangida has denied an initial statement where he said to have asked President Muhammadu Buhari not to seek re-election in 2019 the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the counsel by former military Head of State as timely and another confirmation that Nigerians have agreed that the President and the All Progressives Congress, APC, have failed the test of leadership.

A PDP Lagos State legislator, Mr Dipo Olorunrinu, says there is hope for the party in the state in 2019 if the leadership will work harder.

The solution to the latest crisis that recently erupted within the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, wherein two factions split from the mother party after accusing leaders of imposing candidates on them during the party’s convention, remains a fantasy especially as one of the splinter groups has, however, announced it has set up its own National Working Committee (NWC) to oversee its affairs

NO fewer than 8,000 members of All Progressives Congress, APC, led by a former governorship aspirant of the party in the 2016 governorship election, Mr Blessing  Agbomhere, have defected to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Edo State.
