The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members of the house of representatives have declared vacancy at the Aso Rock
adding that the party is set to fill the vacancy by 2019.
Speaking while reacting to the supreme court judgement that confirmed Ahmed Makarfi as the PDP authentic chairman, the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) caucus at the house of representatives have told the All
Progressives Congress (APC)-led
administration to “start packing” their things from Aso Rock
Delta state lawmaker, Leo Ogor, who is the leader of the caucus, made this known on
Thursday while addressing journalists, said that there’s vacancy in the presidential seat,
adding that the PDP is set to fill the “vacancy” by 2019.
The reps said the APC has “failed to improve the country’s situation better than it met it”,
urging the ruling party to see the PDP’s legal victory as a quit notice.
Ogor said; “We believe that there’s vacancy in Aso Rock. APC should start packing their things from Aso Rock because PDP will take
over in 2019.
“Nigerians tasted almost 16 years of PDP, they have tasted two years of APC but that is
a journey Nigerians don’t want to continue with. Come 2019, we shall restore true democracy where governance belongs to
the people.”
Ogor added that the APC has been “all promises and no action”, adding that it has “occasioned the impoverishment of nigerians who now live in hunger and
insecurity”.
He further said the caucus will “wave the olive branch” in an attempt to bring back its
members that earlier defected.
“We believe that they will come back because there is no basis for not doing so, the ticket that got them to the house did not
belong to them, it belongs to the party,” he said.
