Despite the defection of some of its members to the APC in recent times, the Governor of Niger state and a chieftain of the PDP, Babangida Aliyu says PDP is not dead and that the party will now work towards creating a formidable political strength. Governor Aliyu said this while receiving the Niger state PDP governorship candidate Umar Nasko Campaign Organization led by Alhaji Aminu Yusuf at the Government House, Minna yesterday April 15th.
"Our party is not dead. When all these cool down, we will properly reorganize to bring PDP back to its formidable political strength. Many things have happened and this is not the time for us to apportion blames. I, therefore, hope that during the time we will have to reorganize our party, we would add more ideologies to what we have. Let me urge you to stop thinking you have failed; it went beyond the limits of individual efforts.”he said
