A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Emmanuel Ogidi, has expressed optimism that despite the crisis within the opposition, there is still hope that it would wrestle power from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) come 2027.
Ogidi, who is the caretaker chairman of PDP in the South-South geopolitical zone, expressed this confidence on Monday during an interview on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.
“We are fighting a system that is trying to destroy democracy. There is hope for democracy because PDP is the face of the opposition. PDP stands for democracy,” he said.
PDP had been struggling with an internal crisis, which had led to members resigning in droves.
Recently, former spokesman of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan resigned from the PDP.
