The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) says the return of Yakubu Dogara, speaker of the house of
representatives, shows that the issues which led to his exit in 2014 have been
resolved.
In the past weeks, prominent
members of the national assembly, including Senate President Bukola Saraki,
have defected to the PDP from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Dogara, however, is yet to
announce his defection, but he has been presented a PDP nomination form by his
constituents to re-contest in 2019.
In a statement on Sunday, Kola
Ologbondiyan, national publicity secretary of the PDP, said: “Dogara’s move is
reflective of the wishes and aspiration of his larger constituency and in
tandem with the determination of Nigerians across board to rally on the
platform of the repositioned PDP to vote out the incompetent, divisive and
corrupt APC administration, which has caused untold harm to our nation in the
last three years.”
He said the speaker has conducted
the affairs of the house of representatives with the highest level of
commitment.
“Furthermore, the return of
Dogara and other leaders who had earlier left our fold is a clear testament
that the issues that led to their exit in the first place have all been
addressed under the repositioned and rebranded PDP,” the PDP spokesman said.
