One of the founding members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and a chieftain of the party, Bashir Bukar Rimin Zayam has solicited more support and unity among members of the party to enable the new National Chairman, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff to succeed in his effort to rebuild the party.

Bashir said this Thursday in Bauchi when he addressed a press conference saying that “the new national Chairman deserves more support and cooperation. There is no need to rush him. If three months is not enough to have successful ward, State and National congresses to elect new leaders he should be allowed to extend his tenure by some months in order to have a successful convention.”

The chieftain advised the national chairman to ensure that there is election into all political offices of the party at the ward, State and the National levels.

Bashir, who is the Bauchi State Publicity Secretary of the PDP called on the National Chairman to appeal to all Abuja based politicians to go back to their communities and localities to prepare the ground rather than staying put in Abuja and creating confusion for in their localities.

He advised the National Chairman to cooperate with vibrant politicians like the Gombe and Taraba State Governors, Senator Abdul Ningi and Ambassador Kazaure, and carry all members along in order to make meaningful contributions and succeed. The state PDP spokesman also urged Sheriff to find out the amount of money left in the account of the party and made it public to ensure transparency.

He then called on the Gombe and Taraba State Governors to continue with their efforts to carry people along since they are the only two PDP Governors in the North East and assured that the party will come out stronger and capture power in 2019.

Bashir also charged Modu Sheriff to constitute a powerful committee that would go round the country to reconcile those that left the party or those who were offended in one way or the other.
