The PDP has received one of former minister of information, Labaran Maku, who served under the former President Goodluck Jonathan-led government.
The return of Maku who is currently national secretary of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), on Wednesday, April 6, has been seen as a major boost for the PDP as it seeks to take back power from the APC in 2023.
Confirming the development to journalists on Wednesday, April 6, at Lafia, the Nasarawa state capital, Maku explained that the decision to return to the PDP was in response to the collective wish and yearning of his people in the state.
PDP’s publicity secretary in the state, Ibrahim Hamza, speaking said that the party is joyful over Maku’s return. Hamza also appealed to other founding members of the PDP who left to return as the party’s umbrella is big enough to accommodate everyone. His words: “We are happy that Maku is back to the PDP. We also want to appeal to our members who left the party for one reason or the other, to return because we are now a very united party and we are ready to take over power in 2023. “We are working towards having consensus candidates for the 2023 general election so that we won’t have issues in the party and it would make it easy for us to take over power from the All Progressives Congress government.”
