The factional party chairman of People's Democratic Party PDP, Mr. Uche Secondus has confessed of being part of what led to their party's downfall in the 2019 general election. During a meeting recently in Abuja, the Rivers born politician apologized for imposing candidates at all level which he attributed to be the major cause of their loss in 2015.
According to him, “Since it is said that charity begins at home, I am the very first to admit that our party, the Peoples Democratic Party of Nigeria, made many mistakes. Consequently, we were roundly sanctioned by Nigerians occasioning our loss at the polls in 2015.
“In the past, there were impunity and imposition of candidates. These were wrong things that we did. We took voters and Nigerians for granted."
“We are not a spirit and this is why we have to be humble to apologise for imposition, impunity and other wrongdoings. But while we were in government, there was no nepotism, but today nepotism has taken over the polity.
“Under our watch, there will be no imposition of candidates and no impunity. My colleagues and I at the National Working Committee have vowed to uphold the rule of law as enshrined in our party’s constitution..."##
