Top contender for National Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
Raymond Dokpesi has said Nigeria has become more polarized than ever
before under the watch of All Progressive Congress, APC led government.

Speaking to journalists at a PDP rally in Marmara, in Nasarawa State at
the weekend, Dokpesi said the country has become more divided under APC
than it was during its civil war.

Dokpesi said his party {PDP} was able to hold the country together and
that it remains the only party that has the  capacity to deal with the
issues of uniting  and stabilizing the country.

Dokpesi said PDP is the only political party that has the expertise to
resuscitate Nigeria’s ailing economy under APC.

“We must be very very hopeful, we must look to the future with a lot of
prayers.

I believe that PDP is the only party that can provide the support; that
can provide a rejuvenation of the Nigerian economy; that can really deal
with the issues of unity and stability.

This country is more divided than it was during the civil war”, he said.

Dokpesi pointed out that Nigerians would have a better country when PDP
returns to power in 2019.

The PDP rally in Nassarawa was at the behest of the Chairman of the Board
of Trustees, Walid Jubril.

Jubril used the occssion to call for unity within the party.

He said the party needs to come to terms with its current situation and
work towards achieving peace and reposition itself for future election
victories.

To achieve this  Jubril believes  the party must do away with the culture
of impunity and imposition.

He said members must begin to subject themselves to the will of the party.

“Our party needs to run away completely from impunity. We have to be able
to accept the reality of the situation that we are in today and forget
about all our differences and ensure that this party remains unbeatable
party”, he said.

He added that PDP has all the ingredients to rule Nigeria again.

Jubril said reconciliation talks are on with former National Chairman, Ali
Modu Sheriff; optimistic that the party would soon resolve the crisis
within.

Dokpesi’s candidacy for the coveted seat of National Chairman of PDP is
reinforced in Nassarawa as he garners more endorsements from party leaders
and delegates in the State.
