I will make PDP great again, University don declares for Publicity Secretary

Former Minister of National Planning, Prof Abubakar Olanrewaju Sulaiman, has stated that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will attain major height in political accomplishment with a vibrant image maker as its National Publicity Secretary.

Prof Sulaiman said this in his mission statement Wednesday while canvassing for support of party faithful as he contests for the position in the forth coming PDP national convention slated for December.

The aspirant expressed staunch belief in the  “PDP as the only viable vehicle for the redemption and transformation of our country” saying that “my vision to aspire for the post of the National Publicity Secretary of our great party is borne out of the conviction that our failure in the last election was informed by the inability to project and promote our party ideals and accomplishments.

The university don said: “the array of internal squabbles on account of the impunity experienced in the various chapters of our party remains a fundamental drawback for the party’s outing in the  general elections.

“Politics and electoral process entail opinion molding and perception building. Without a strong and vibrant image maker, we would find it difficult to achieve this major height in our political accomplishment.

 “As a  matter of exigency, our party requires a man of strong character, courage, articulate and proactive traits to preside over this sensitive position.

“Consequently, our party’s dream to attain this level can only be realized via collectivity, inclusivity  and structured social networking.

 “We must change our tactics, as you can’t do things the same way and expect to have different results. A new strategy must be reinvented and our philosophy to transformation and change must be reviewed.

“My wealth of experience as a teacher of politics for over two decades; the institutional memories of my Cabinet year and my close partnership with Nigeria media remain an asset in the  task ahead.

“I have paid my dues in the last two years. I have been constructively engaged in criticising the Buhari- led APC government more than any member of the past administration.

“However, our party deserves a new face and that face starts with a credible image maker, who would not only be respected by the old but garner the confidence of the young.

 “I fervently solicit your support in actualising this dream. “Together we can” , Sulaiman said.
