Niger State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the conduct of the national convention and the election of Chief Uche Secondus as the national chairman of the party as the beginning of a new dawn for the party.
The state Chairman of the party, Alhaji Tanko Beji, said yesterday in Minna that the emergence of Prince Secondus was “the end of imposition and impunity in the party and the beginning of a new dawn for the party”.
According to a statement issued yesterday, Beji said expressed optimism that the new national chairman would unite the party and turn around its fortunes.
The statement reads in parts: “There is no doubt that your overwhelming victory with 2000 votes out of a total of 2396 delegates at the convention is a testimony to your acceptability by all delegates at the convention and the PDP members at home and in the diaspora
“Your victory is also an endorsement of your leadership capability and belief that you possess all that it takes to move our party to greater heights.
“Your victory as the new national chairman of our party is reward for your steadfastness, loyalty and dedication to the party before, during and after the crisis that engulfed our party especially when some enemies of the party and democracy tried to detail us.
Further, he assured the new leadership of the support of the chapter but advised “the new chairman to be wary of sycophants who could derail his plans for the party and avoid the pitfalls of the previous executives which caused us the 2015 election”.
