Former Plateau State governor, Senator Jonah Jang, has said the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) remains one of the most united political parties in Nigeria since it was formed in 1998.
Speaking at a caucus meeting of the Plateau North Senatorial District of the PDP, Jang said the party has continued to stand strong at the national level without any form of division threatening its existence.
“Since 1998, the PDP has remained one of the most united political parties in Nigeria. No faction has been able to shake its foundation,” Jang said.
He noted that although some members had left the party over time, the PDP is still rooted in the dedication and sacrifices of its genuine founding fathers.
“It makes no sense to me when I hear founding members of PDP defecting to another party. How can a founding father abandon his own house? A true and genuine founding father will not abandon his house, no matter the level of provocation,” he said.
At the meeting, party stakeholders in the senatorial district endorsed Plateau State governor, Caleb Mutfwang, for a second term in office. His deputy, Josephine Piyo, and the state PDP chairman, Chris Hassan, were also given unanimous support for another term.
