The only reason most people are still in the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) or at least supporting keenly is not because of the self serving ‘leaders’ who run the party at all levels. It is because of people like Ayodele Fayose who keep it real…

The tremendous love people showed President Goodluck Jonathan is what the PDP is mistaking for “support for our party”.
The PDP needs to wake up… No one can support selfish, greedy people like those who currently constitutes the party’s leadership and stalwarts.
Doesn’t it occur to the PDP that the party is actually living on the goodwill of a few of its people? Have they given any thought to what would happen if that goodwill runs out?
If of all the problems this party has, all it can see as a solution is e-registration and some other worn out ideas like zoning the 2019 ticket to the North, then it is not wrong to conclude that the PDP is in self-denial.
A party that has made no attempt to galvanise its support base or even acknowledge the contribution of those who ‘slaved’ for the party while a few with access to the party’s campaign funds made away with the money.
The PDP cannot pretend that it is not aware that the people who constituted its 2015 campaign organisation are buying new cars, building new houses, and marrying new wives from the proceeds of the campaign wallet.
The ostrich approach of the current national working committee (NWC) of the PDP is the reason the next generation will leave the party if offered a viable alternative to express their political passions.
The NWC needs to shape up or shape out. Enough is Enough!
