Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde reaffirmed the People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) commitment to revitalizing both the party and the nation, promising to lead Nigeria toward a brighter future.

Speaking in Abuja during the inauguration of the Board of Governors and the launch of a strategic roadmap for the People’s Democratic Institute (PDI), Makinde outlined his vision for a PDP-led Nigeria.

His words echoed a call to action, emphasizing that the PDP would rebuild itself to offer the strong leadership Nigeria urgently needs.

The PDI, established by the PDP in 2000, plays a crucial role as the party’s research and educational arm, dedicated to fostering democratic values, education, and effective governance not only in Nigeria but across Africa.

Through its training, research, and capacity-building programs, the PDI aims to shape a new democratic culture, equipping current and future leaders with the skills to tackle pressing national issues.

Makinde emphasized that a renewed PDP would lay the groundwork for Nigeria’s progress, providing Nigerians with a genuine sense of hope as the country heads toward the 2027 elections.

According to him, revitalizing PDI is an essential step toward restoring public trust and confidence in the party’s ability to lead, as well as setting a clear ideological path that can guide the nation’s future.

“Our mission is straightforward,” Makinde stated, “We will fix the PDP, and the PDP will fix Nigeria.

This is the real hope Nigerians need.”

He stressed that Nigerians are searching for clear direction, and the PDP has an obligation to provide a solid ideological foundation to guide the country through turbulent times.

He sees this as an opportunity for the party to redefine its values and remind Nigerians of the principles it stands for.

Makinde called on all party members and political leaders to reflect on their roles and the legacy they wish to leave behind.

He stated the importance of serving the public with dedication, urging leaders to consider what they want to be remembered for.

This moment, he suggested, is a chance for leaders to prioritize the nation’s welfare above personal ambitions, reinforcing his commitment to strengthening Nigerian democracy and the PDP.

In a recent development, governors from Nigeria’s ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) have voiced their opposition to the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) February 10 deadline for the old N200, N500, and N1,000 naira notes to cease being legal tender.

The governors argue that the policy’s implementation has led to significant hardships for Nigerians, particularly in rural areas where access to banking services is limited.

The APC governors have expressed concerns that the scarcity of the new naira notes is disrupting daily life and economic activities. They highlight that many citizens are struggling to access cash, which is essential for their livelihoods.

In response to these challenges, the governors have sought a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari to discuss the implications of the policy and to advocate for an extension of the deadline.

Dr. Salihu Lukman, a former National Vice Chairman (North-West) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has criticized Nigeria’s opposition leaders, accusing them of playing a significant role in the country’s current political struggles.

In a statement released on Sunday, Lukman argued that many opposition figures and politically sidelined politicians contributed to the failures of past administrations.

He believes they should acknowledge their roles and step back rather than attempting to position themselves as alternatives to the current government.

“Based on their track records, many of these politicians would likely perform worse than former Presidents Goodluck Jonathan, Muhammadu Buhari, and even President Tinubu,” Lukman stated.

He described them as intolerant and unable to build strong political structures, leading to their loss of influence in their respective states.
