CHIEF ONUESOKE URGES ATIKU, SARAKI OTHERS TO RETURN HOME TO PDP

With the 2019 elections fast approaching and the need for alignment and realignment of forces amongst political parties, there have been calls on former stakeholders and founding members of the Peoples' Democratic Party (PDP) to return back to the fold.

Adding voice to the call, prominent politician and one time Governorship Aspirant of the People's Democratic Party in Delta State, Chief Sunny Onuesoke has called on Alhaji Abubakar Atiku, Bukola Saraki & others to return to PDP where they rightly and originally belong.



Chief Onuesoke made this call while receiving Members of the Niger Delta Youths For Peace (NDYP) who paid him a courtesy visit at the International Headquarters of Onuesoke Foundation in Warri, Delta State.

According to Onuesoke, "Atiku, Saraki and other founding fathers of our great Party worked assiduously hard to position the party and make it the biggest political party in Africa".

"The new rebranded PDP is wide enough to accommodate everybody. I'm happy Former Gov. Ladoja of Oyo State is back to the party. Others like Atiku, Senate President Bukola Saraki, Ita-Giwa, should consider and take that bold decision too", he stated.

"The leadership of the Party is working round the clock to woo more members to its fold. We wont relent in our membership drive until all those that left the Party prior to the 2015 general elections are brought back".

"In life every man needs a decision to change his destiny. PDP has taken this decision of wooing back our members, come 2019, we will take what rightly belongs to us".

The PDP chieftain noted that; "APC is living on borrowed members. 80% of those in APC today are members of our great party".

On the statement of the Honourable Minister of Women Affairs, Senator Aisha Alhassan, popularly referred to as "Mama Taraba" that "she will support Atiku if President Buhari contests the 2019 general elections", Onuesoke said the Minister merely stated the obvious truth.

"Nigerians are fed up with this APC led federal Government. Mama Taraba just stated the obvious fact. Those criticising her are mere sycophants. Some Nigerians hate to be told the truth but that will not stop or deter us from talking".

"It takes Courage to stand on the path of Truth. I admire her boldness and honesty", Onuesoke stated.

Speaking earlier, the National President of Niger Delta Youths For Peace, Comrade Presibe Timimaye said Onuesoke is a Voice, not only in the Niger Delta region but Nigeria as a whole.

"We have come to identify with you today Sir. As a voice in Nigeria politics, you remain a role model to the Youths".

"You're a voice to the voiceless. The pride of Urhobo Nation", Comrade Timimaye noted.
