The All Progressives Congress, (APC), Party in Niger State have been told to prepare to hand over the state the way it was in 2015 after the 2023 general elections.
The Niger State chapter of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) made this call on Tuesday to announce its preparedness to take over governance at the 2023 General Elections.
The state Chairman, Barrister Tanko Beji told Journalists in Minna that, the PDP will ensure that it takes back the state in 2023 general elections, saying that “whatever is not working in the areas of security, economy, education among others should be revived.
“The system seems to have broken down, the economy is weak security situation has degenerated, education is at it’s lowest. The APC led government should do something to revive this so that, when they are handing over to us, they will be handing over what we gave to them. We will ensure that we win, it’s in the front burner.”
He also maintained that the party will not change its position on zoning, saying, the Governorship seat of the state has been zoned to Niger South Senatorial district.
He further disclosed that under the leadership of the new Executives, decisions taken by members of the party would not be altered. Adding that, power will be given back to the people at both local government and ward levels to give them a say in the Affairs of the party.
Accordingly, he said “we want to take the party back to the people and we won’t change the decisions of members. We will give back power to them. What the members desire is what we are going to do after that the ground will be fertile.”
