The Peoples Democratic Party was founded to govern, not to oppose, according to Bolaji Abdullahi, National Publicity Secretary of the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
Abdullahi claimed that after the PDP found itself in an odd position as an opposition party in 2015, everything started to go south.
While answering questions on Channels Television’s Breakfast Show on Wednesday, he made this statement.
Nigeria was on the verge of becoming a one-party state before the ADC stepped in, and Abdullahi argued that Nigerians had everything to thank for the party’s intervention.
He said: “PDP was not built to play opposition party—PDP was built to govern. So it found itself in a strange place in 2015 as an opposition party, and then everything began to spill downward from there. Then came this administration, and PDP remains like the potential challenger for power again.
“So I don’t know if it was a deliberate policy of this government or it’s something that some people just decided to undertake by themselves, to undermine or take advantage of the internal contradictions in the opposition party and to make sure they are no more.
“In the situation we are in today, I am not saying this because I’m in ADC, Nigerians have to thank ADC for coming on the scene. Why? We are inexorably heading to a one-party state.”
