The Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has observed that President Bola Tinubu’s ‘poorly-implemented reforms’ were pushing millions of Nigerians deeper into poverty.
The PDP BoT also expressed dissatisfaction over the decision of the party’s National Working Committee, NWC, to postpone the National Executive Committee, NEC, meeting for three consecutive times.
Chairman of the BoT, Senator Adolphus Wabara, spoke for the Board in his opening remarks at the ongoing emergency meeting holding at the party’s National Secretariat, in Abuja.
It could be recalled that the NWC announced a third consecutive postponement of the NEC meeting, the latest being one which was supposed to be held on November 28, 2024.
According to Wabara, the decision of the Amb. Umar Damagum-led NWC to continuously postpone such a crucial meeting erodes the confidence of party members.
“On the national front, the harsh economic policies of the (President Bola) Tinubu administration have exacerbated the suffering of Nigerians.

“The skyrocketing cost of living, coupled with poorly implemented economic reforms, has pushed millions into deeper poverty.
“The promises of economic relief have proven hollow, leaving families struggling to make ends meet.
“Our party must rise to this occasion by offering credible alternatives and amplifying the voices of the suffering masses.
“Let us reaffirm our commitment to the values of fairness, equity, and prosperity for all Nigerians.
“Internally, we must put our house in order. I want to use this platform to call for unity among our PDP governors.
“The strength of our party lies in our collective resolve, not in individual pursuits. We cannot afford to let personal ambitions or differences overshadow our shared vision for a better Nigeria.
“Our governors are the bedrock of the PDP’s successes across states, and their synergy is vital for our collective progress.
“Let us prioritize dialogue, collaboration, and a sense of shared responsibility as we navigate these trying times.
“The BoT will be relentless in seeking for peace and unity in our party as the conscience of PDP.”
