The Governor of Niger State, Mu’azu Aliyu, has stated that contrary to widespread permutations, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is not dead. He said the party will come back in 2019 to take what it lost in this year elections.

Mr. Aliyu, who made this declaration Thursday when the campaign organization of Umar Nasko, Niger State’s PDP governorship candidate, visited him at the government house in Minna, said the PDP will meet at the state and federal levels to correct its mistakes. “Our party is not dead. When all this cools down, we will properly re-organize to bring PDP back to its formidable political strength. Many things have happened and this is not the time for us to cast blames,” Mr. Aliyu said.

The governor also expressed hope that the party would add more ideology to what it already has, as it reorganizes. “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.
