Nigerians regretting voting APC, eager to change the Change in 2019 – Ahmed Makarfi
Senator Ahmed Makarfi Chairman the Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday said most Nigerians who voted for the All Progressives Congress (APC) are regretting the action.
He also said such persons had been apologizing publicly for voting out the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in 2015.
Makarfi, at an event in Abuja on Wednesday, however, noted that Nigerians had another opportunity to vote the PDP back in power in 2019.
Noting that PDP was rebranding and re-strategising ahead of the next general elections, he said: “it is only the judgment in Port Harcourt we are waiting for and we are praying for a fair judgment that will revive the hope of the people.
“Justice should be done and seen to be done in a manner that the whole world will see that the judiciary is doing the right thing.
“If you eliminate or encumber the opposition, nobody will be safe. It is for the interest of Nigeria that there is opposition.
“Some people are already apologising for voting us out of office, but we are telling them to vote for us again.”
Makarfi assured that the party will reconcile on a strong foundation, stressing that the PDP would avoid loopholes in its reconciliation drive.
