The soul of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been set on the edge and being positioned for execution. We in PDP Unity Forum have have decided not to be part of the killing of the party but do all that is within our purview to see to the success of the party. Now, the big question ” Who should be the acting National Chairman of PDP?” gives the party a grave concern and needs to be addressed immediately.

Senator Sulaiman Nazif Vs. Elder Yemi Akinwonmi

Taking into consideration the past achievements and personalities of Elder Akinwonmi  and Senator Nazif, the party is in a confused state on who should emerge “The Acting National Chairman of the PDP party”.

Elder Akinwonmi, the South West National Vice Chairman is a good material and qualified to be the acting National Chairman especially by the virtue of his position but taking a second look at everything tells us that it is not only about how old or long in the party one has being but the ability and capabilities to deliver at the moment.

Senator Sulaiman Nazif was one time member of the House of Representatives and two-time Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, where he served as Chairman, Senate Committee on Labour and Productivity as well as Chairman, Senate Committee on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). He holds a degree in Water Resources and Environmental Engineering as well as a Masters degree in International Affairs and Diplomacy (MAID) from the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria. Senator Nazif is a nationalist, grassroots politician and philanthropist.

Elder Akinwonmi as it stands now is not physically in a stable and strong health condition. He has been down for a while and that has even kept him away from physical activities of the party for a while. While we pray for his strength to fully return as he is convalisencing, it is also important to know that the current fight to win back the party to it’s formal stand needs a strong man that can make even in the middle of the night to get things done as at when needed.

Based on this facts, the PDP Unity Forum fully throw their support behind Senator Nazif to hold the office for this few weeks before the up coming National convention. This stands was declared by Ameh Lima, the National Coordinator of PDP Unity Forum in a press release on Wednesday. In his statement, he said;

“This will not only help in keeping the party together but also changing the narrative in the plan and build up to the general election. PDP Unity Forum therefore fully supports that Senator Nazif be made the acting National Chairman pending the National convention”
