Dear Editor,

PDP House no more in order

It is a fact that the ruling PDP party has continued to show no regard to the sensibility of Nigerians. No one would be proved wrong when suggesting that we do not have government in place at the centre.  We are just groping in darkness.

While some PDP members pretend that their Party has the most acceptable democratic norm practiced, many others and most Nigerians believe that the PDP is the most undisciplined party and without (not only) internal democracy but livid with confusion, double-standards. They pretend to the masses.

PDP members in the Senate and House of Representative pretended they were quarreling over where the President should present his 2010 budget; whereas it was just a hoax which they created in order not to allow the President to present the budget in person because he does not have energy to stand and read the budget.

On another hand, we notice a section of the Party setting up second term campaign team for President Umaru Yar’Adua and the PDP NWC countering them. And looking at the Ike Nwachuwku’s Elders Committee offering advice to the parties involved; an Elder Committee that could not handle matters properly in Akwa Ibom State where removal of only a State officer was involved whereas in Oyo it was able to appoint 35-man committee to run the affairs of the State’s PDP.

I believe PDP in a deep shit and only time shall tell if there is any way forward for it.
