The Chairman of the
National Caretaker Committee (NCC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),
Senator Ahmed Makarfi has prayed for quick recovery for ailing President
Muhammadu Buhari, saying that the party wanted him to be the one it would
defeat in 2019.
Speaking at the non-elective national convention of the party in Abuja on
Saturday, he affirmed that PDP was already the government in waiting.
He said: “We mean well for our President. We continue to pray for
his full recovery. We want him to be fit and on seat when we will defeat the
APC government come 2019.
“We will continue to pray for him but that doesn’t mean we will go
to sleep. We will work hard to replace the APC government, come 2019 God
willing.”
Makarfi said not being an alliance but a party with strong bond
among its members; the party has much experience and has much to offer the
country.
He said the PDP was a truthful party to Nigerians which would not
engage in deception, adding that Saturday’s event was an affirmation that the
PDP was poised to recapture power in 2019.
The party boss observed that the APC has brought hunger and
starvation to the country while insecurity has increased many folds.
He told the delegate statement: “Nigerians may wonder, what has
PDP got. Well, what are you getting now? Are you not hungry? Are you not
jobless? Are you not insecure? My God! Pray for PDP to come back.
“Kidnapping is part of insecurity and it has spread across the
length and breadth of this country and it’s because of joblessness.”
According to him, students were crying over hike in tuition fees
even when money was scarce.
He therefore promised that when the PDP returns to power, it would
consider a Students Loan Scheme to alleviate their sufferings.
“There will be no hunger because there will be plenty to eat.
There may be plenty in the market but you have zero cash in your pocket. Under
PDP, there will be cash in your pocket because you have earned the cash,”
Makarfi added.
