The National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Ahmadu Adamu Muazu has urged all stakeholders and members of the party across the country to put behind them the disappointment of defeat, sheathe their swords and ensure the party returns to winning ways.
The national chairman in a statement on Tuesday said though the party’s defeat in the last general election is painful, members should key into the intervention by President Goodluck Jonathan and not allow the situation to further divide the party.
Mu’azu who has been under intense heat by his party faithful over his removal due the party’s abysmal performance in the general elections pleaded that, “The national leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has noted the various reactions that trailed the unfortunate loss of our great party in the last general elections.
“In the last few weeks, the media has been fishing on these reactions with a section even blowing it out of proportion to a level that has become a threat to our oneness as a family.
“As the National Chairman and a key stakeholder in this party in the last 16 years, I quite understand and appreciate the concern, pain and frustrations of our members regarding our defeat.
“I am also deeply worried about the division the development has generated within the PDP family especially regarding whether or not the national leadership should be dissolved as a direct consequence of our collective challenge.
“In the course of events, there have been reactions and counter-reactions among party members; mistakes have been made, some of them avoidable, but this is the time to put all of them behind us and move ahead as our party and its interest remain paramount and overriding.” He explained
