The chairman of the Governors Forum of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Ayo Fayose, has given assurance that the leadership of the party will ensure fairness, transparency and justice in the running of its affairs.
Fayose spoke shortly after a brief meeting with Governor Ifeanyi Okowa (Delta), Governor Nyesom Wike (Rivers) and Secretary, PDP Caretaker Committee, Senator Ben Obi, when they converged on Asaba enroute Anambra for the PDP governorship primaries.
Fayose said the leadership of the party was re-strategising to ensure success in future elections.
He gave the assurance that the unity and reconciliation of party members would bring political gains in 2019.
“This is a new beginning for our party, it is part of the effort of our party to ensure due process and that everybody gets justice. With the calibre of men in this our national committee you can be rest assured of transparency, justice and fairness,” he said.
Governor Fayose congratulated the president on his return from his medical leave but reminded him that Nigerians were hungry not only for food but for development.
He urged the Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) government to face governance squarely and deliver the gains of democracy to the people.
“We are happy that President Buhari is back, it is a welcome development but Nigerians are hungry, they need food, they need development. We in PDP know what is right for Nigerians, democracy is strengthened by opposition, APC should face governance squarely and give Nigerians democratic dividends,” he said.
He stressed that governors elected on the platform of the PDP were committed to working together with the party leadership with a view to repositioning the party and eventually winning the 2019 national election.
