Wike, Okowa reaffirm PDP’s readiness to pull Nigeria from brinks of Collapse

The Rivers State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike and his Delta State counterpart, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, have expressed optimism that when the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) returns to power in 2023, it would pull the country from the brinks.

The governors expressed optimism that only PDP posses the capacity to improve the living conditions of Nigerians which have diminished under the incumbent All Progressives Congress (APC).
Wike while addressing delegates at the PDP South-South Zonal Congress, which held in Rivers State recently said Nigerians were yearning to return the party to power in 2023.

He said, “The hope of this party in this country is the South-South zone. Since 1999, that has been the case and it has never changed, and by the grace of God, it will not change.”
Let us conduct ourselves to show that PDP is different from all other political associations. And that of course will show we are more committed, we mean well and are waiting by the grace of God to take over power in 2023.”

On his part, Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, said the PDP has a bright prospect to return to power in 2023.
Okowa maintained that Nigeria was much better under PDP rule than the APC.
He declared that the PDP will pull back the country from the brink and Nigerians will be better for it.
The Delta State governor said the South-South zone dominated by the PDP will continue to be a voice in national politics.

His words: “We thank God that we are gathered here once again as a zone, as a party and we thank God because you know when the South-South zone of the Peoples Democratic Party speak, we speak with one voice. And being the strength of our party and the South-South being the strength of our nation, Nigeria , we cannot but continue to give glory to God because God has brought us together and as long as we stay united and strong we will be continually respected in this nation.”
He said going forward into the future, the South-South zone of the Peoples Democratic Party will continue to remain strong, united and the leadership will continue to give direction that will help to rebuild the party and to take back the country.
Okowa reassured the zonal leadership of the party that the South-South governors will work in close relationship with them to strengthen the state chapters of the party.
