Former Senate President Bukola Saraki says the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is Nigeria’s only hope out to rebuild and reunite.

Saraki made the assertion at the induction ceremony of the National Reconciliation Committee set up by the PDP in Abuja today, December 2, 2020.

Saraki is the chairman of the PDP’s reconciliation committee and his assertion comes in the face of backlash over grappling with economic and security issues by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Speaking at the occasion Saraki stated that

“It is obvious that the success of the PDP today is the only hope that Nigeria needs to survive and bounce fully back.

“I am proud to note that PDP is still the best platform through which we can rebuild and unite Nigeria. One indication about the significance of this party is that it is the ONLY political party that has at least a Governor in all the six geo-political zones of our country.

“Our party is also the only party which has members in all the households, streets, polling zones, wards, local government areas, states and across the country such that it is said that any street or community where the symbol of the umbrella is not sighted may not be part of the Nigerian territory.

“It is our belief and that of many members of this party that our chances in the 2023 elections are very bright and we need to unite ourselves to further brighten the chances.”
