‘He’s highly organised and patriotic’: Muazu, Anenih, Others Visit Ikimi, Woo Him To Rejoin PDP

Must read

National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,  Alhaji Adamu Muazu, has led some  leaders of the party to former National Chairman, National Republican Convention, NRC, and immediate past Chieftain of  the All Progressives Congress,  APC, Chief Tom Ikimi, begging him to rejoin the party.

Muazu, who made the visit, Friday night, to the Abuja Maitama residence of Ikimi with the Chairman, PDP Board of Trustees, BoT, Chief Tony Anenih, and PDP deputy National Chairman, Prince  Uche Uches Secondus, stressed that the visit was among others designed to finalize arrangements for his formal return, adding that the PDP was happy that Ikimi had decided to return to its fold.

The PDP boss described Ikimi as a highly organized and patriotic Nigerian who has the interest of the nation at heart, saying such attribute made it hard for him to be in a party like the APC.  He said that PDP will immensely benefit from Ikimi’s “wealth of experience, strong political structure and massive followership across the country”.
Also speaking, Anenih commended Ikimi for his decision to dump the APC and  return to PDP, stressing that it was in the overall interest of the nation.

Responding, Ikimi told his visitors that he had concluded plans to return to PDP and promised to bring value to the party by serving at any level.

He vowed to use his position and political structures especially in the South-south to ensure that the PDP emerged victorious in the 2015 general elections. “I look forward to bringing value to the PDP. I believe that my contributions will again be noteworthy. By my joining PDP, we are assured of victory not only in Edo State but in the entire South-south geo-political zone”, Ikimi said, noting that he was ready to serve the party in any capacity deemed appropriate by the leaders. Also at the meeting were Secretary of the PDP BoT, Senator Wali Jibril; a former FCT Minister, Dr. Aliyu Modibbo, as well as other political stakeholders from the South-south.
