Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, says Nigerians are looking up to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for direction and will do everything within its power to fix the party and Nigeria.
Makinde made this statement in Abuja at the inauguration of the Board of Governors and the unveiling of the Roadmap for Peoples Democratic Institute (PDI).
Chronicle NG reports that PDI is the research arm of PDP established in 2000 to promote a new democratic culture in Nigeria and Africa through the provision of value-added education, training, capacity building, research, and documentation programmes.
Makinde said they will fix the PDP, which would in turn fix Nigeria.
“We will fix PDP and then PDP will fix Nigeria, which will be the basis of real hope for the people of Nigeria.
“As we approach 2027, it is clear that the PDP has to provide real hope for Nigeria. By revitalising the PDI that real hope is being provided for our people.
“Our country needs direction. Nigerians are looking up to the PDP to provide an ideological foundation.”
According to him, with the inauguration of the board, PDP was moving a step closer to defining the ideology it stood for.
He urged politicians and leaders who were given the opportunity to serve to always ask themselves what they want to be remembered for.
The Oyo governor reiterated his commitment to strengthening the country’s democracy and PDP.
