Senate President David Mark says PDP may be heading for its final burial
following the mass defection and accusations and counter accusations
that have rocked the party since it loss in the presidential elections.
Senator Mark gave the warning while receiving members of the party's
post-election committee led by Senator Ike Ekweremadu in Abuja today May
6th.
"Unless we halt the
bleeding and find the necessary therapy, we may be heading for the final
burial of the party. The party (PDP) is already comatose and we should
do all we can to
resuscitate the party rather than this unnecessary rancour and bulk
passing. The emerging factions (in PDP) are absolutely unnecessary. The
combatants must sheathe their swords and embrace dialogue. My appeal is
that we should not do anything further that would damage the
already-fragmented house. Everybody should come together and rebuild the
party. We have gotten
enough bruises.
We need not inflict further pains on ourselves, with
continuous bickering. Enough of this blame-game. We should return to the
drawing board and
need not wash our dirty linen in the public, anymore. I believe a useful
lesson has been learnt from the PDP electoral misfortune. As for me,
it is time to put on our thinking caps and chart a new course. I trust
Senator Ekweremadu that he and his team will do a good job and
unearth the remote and immediate causes of our misfortune and make
recommendations that will enhance the future of the party. I have worked
closely with the deputy president of the senate over the
years and I know his capability and capacity to handle issues.”the
