The Rivers State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, says there is no going back on its resolve to throw its primaries open to all qualified aspirants and ethnic groups in the State.
A statement issued by Jerry Needam, special adviser on media to the state chairman of the party, Felix Obua says this is due to the party’s strong desire to reclaim all the political offices stolen from the party.
While advising critics and those that are opposed to the party’s decision to look elsewhere as the decision is irreversible, the state chairman of the party said he is not intimidated by baseless criticisms, calling them wishes of those who do not mean well for the PDP.
According to the party chairman, no other system could be more democratic and there is no better way of choosing popular candidates for the 2015 general elections than to all the ethnic nationalities the opportunity to bring out their best candidates for the respective offices so that only the best will be elected.
“May I also use this opportunity to enjoin my faithful party members not to be deceived by such antics of our opponents and enemies and remain steadfast to party policies and resolutions to the disgrace of our critics,” the PDP chair stressed.
