Professor Adeniran who was a former Nigeria Ambassador to Germany made the declaration yesterday while receiving members of the Concerned PDP Mid-Rangers (CPDPMR) who paid him a solidarity visit at his new Campaign Headquarters office in Abuja.
This came just as he also assured Party members that he would put an end to impunity and imposition of candidates which had been the bane of the party’s progress over the years, saying that the era of injustice and impunity in the Party under him would become history
He promised that when the PDP returned to power at the national level under him as the National Chairman, he would ensure that power was given back to the people through good governance
Adeniran while charging the delegation to reach out to all PDP delegates in the party ahead of the national convention, added that by 2019 “as your national chairman I will deliver the president for PDP.”
According to him, “We are not gunning for the office for the fun of it or because we want to be chairman of the largest party PDP. The purpose is so that by the grace of God and with you, we will put an end to impunity, imposition in the party
“We know what Nigeria has been going through. PDP will take over and we will demonstrate what it means to give power to the people
“Kindly go back and let’s reach every nook and cranny of this country, keep a checklist of those who are yet to be reached. We want to bring everybody on board and we trust you can do that
Earlier, the National coordinator of CPDPMR, Dr Emeka Wachuku, lamented that impunity and imposition of candidates was an aberration in our party, adding that’s effect remains failure and defeat.
He however declared that Adeniran was the best option for the party noting now based on his past records
According to him, “PDP needs a national chairman with no legal pending issues surrounding him. Our party needs a credible national chairman who will give a positive perception of the party. Our party needs someone who has remains consistent, committed, steadfast and amenable as national chairman
Our party does not need someone who is nomadic in character and actions but someone reliable as a national chairman
“Our party needs someone who knows and was part of the history of PDP formation, as national chairman. Without mincing words, Prof Tunde Adeniran represents these qualities and should be elected as the next national chairman of our great party
“If we elect the wrong person, it obviously means that indeed our party has not learnt and is headed for ruins, but if we support and elect Prof Tunde Adeniran, it obviously means that PDP is headed for Aso Rock by 2019, by the grace of God.”
