Another
highly placed party member, who is in the know of the latest twist,
disclosed that most, if not all the members of the new PDP, may be on
their way back to the PDP.
According
to the female source, the rebirth is coming at a time when the APC was
no longer living up to its billing, in meeting the socio-political and
economic yearnings of Nigerians.
She
said: “As you can see, the Supreme Court judgment has thrown up so many
things. From all indications, a lot of realignment and
counter-realignment, will begin to emerge to shape the countdown to
2019.
“Don’t
be surprised when you begin to see the return of our PDP members, who
went to APC. Yes, I can tell you that they are already thinking of a
return, and this will definitely happen. This I know.”
“Atiku can
never be in the APC, and still be talking of restructuring. He can’t
achieve that in the party, he has to come back to the PDP.
“But before then, I want you to recall that Atiku is a strong contender for 2019 Presidency. So, we know that Atiku is already considering this option, since he had been championing the cause for the nation to be restructured.”
Nonetheless, one of Atiku’s Aides who craved anonymity, denied the report saying: “That is not on the table, and not on the agenda.
“The
rumoured defection had been going on for some time now, we don’t know
where that is coming from. But I can tell you it is not true. Atikuremains in the APC.”
Also, in a swift reaction, Kwankwaso refuted
the claims through his Spokesperson, Binta Spikin, saying there was no
time he muted the idea of moving out of the party that he suffered to
nurture.
“Kwankwaso is
not an unpopular Politician, who will go out of a party unannounced,
you know the army of his followers across the country, so I don’t think
he can even think of decamping, without first discussing it with his
loyalists.”
The former Governor said he did not see anything good in the PDP, that would make him go back.
“It is not that simple thing for a man like Kwankwaso, who drives national loyalty and support, to just decamp to a party that still is searching for it is based.
“If
truly he is going out of the ruling APC, it would have been the talk of
the town by now, because he will do it in such a way that millions of
his followers will be put in the know, and be prepared for the journey
ahead.”
