Governor of Niger State, Babangida Aliyu who would be leaving office on May 29th, has encouraged PDP party chieftains and members not to think they have failed woefully in the past general elections, assuring them that they are not failures and neither is the party dead. Aliyu says the party will soon call for a meeting from the federal to state level to strategize for 2019.

“Our party is not dead. When all these cools down, we will properly re-organise to bring PDP back to its formidable political strength. Many things have happened and this is not the time for us to apportion blame.

“I therefore hope that when we will have to re-organise our party, we would add ideology to what we have. Let me urge you to stop thinking you have failed. In terms of elections, particularly the time we found ourselves, it went beyond the limits of individual effort,” he said, when the Umar Nasko Campaign Organization visited him today at the Government house in Minna.
