The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has inaugurated the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) in Ekiti State for the 2023 general elections.
The Former Zonal chairman, South West PDP, Eddy Olafeso, inaugurating the council in Ado-Ekiti, urged PDP members in the state to close ranks and work for the victory of the party in the coming election.
Olafeso said Nigerians had witnessed the worst Christmas ever in Nigeria’s history and charged the electorates to use their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to vote for Atiku and Okowa, the Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates of the party, in order to effect the desired change.
Olafeso, who also inaugurated the state Campaign Manager Committee, condemned the leadership style of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), saying that Nigeria had been plunged into numerous problems without solutions.
The Acting Chairman, Ekiti PDP PCC, Ogundipe Makanjuola, said what is required is the unalloyed commitment of party members towards the winning the Presidential election in the next two months so that the PDP can revamp the battered economy of Nigeria.
Makanjuola called on PDP supporters to go out to mobilise support for the party and all its candidates in the election.
“We have been handed a very strategic task, a very challenging assignment, but by the special grace of God, it is not insurmountable, we shall succeed,” he said.
