Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde said Thursday that the PDP, or Peoples Democratic Party, is still alive.

Speaking to media during the PDP’s Southwest zoning consultation session in Lagos, Makinde gave the guarantee.

Despite its internal crises, he insisted that the PDP is still a powerful force.

The governor pointed out that the PDP may regain power with perseverance.

Additionally, he issued a warning, saying that he is not willing to go down on anyone who chooses to “go into the gutters.”

He said: “Personally, when people go low or go into the gutters, I don’t go with them. Some people are now going into the gutters. We will reach out to them.

“I can disagree with people, but there shouldn’t be anything personal here. That is democracy.

“In all our states, they showed last Saturday that PDP is not dead.

“In most other places of the 12 states, PDP came second. It is an indication to us that if we continue to work hard, we can reclaim the confidence of Nigerians.

“We haven’t even gotten there. We need to have a party first before you start talking about presidential candidates. If we don’t have a party, anything you are trying to do will fall flat.

“Our efforts right now are directed towards having a vibrant and united PDP that Nigerians will be proud of and believe in again.”
