A former Minister of State for Defence, Col. Austin Akobundu (rtd), says he is the most qualified for position of National Organising Secretary of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Speaking at the state headquarters of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP yesterday, Akobundu who has served the party at various state, zonal and national assignments said “From my pedigree, I am qualified, having been a national Ex-Officio, 2 times national vice
chairman, minister of the federal Republic of Nigeria and well tutored in party administration.
“I understand the workings of the party. The challenges of the party are clear to me”.
On the challenges facing the party as well as others, he said that an individual does not address the challenges in party administration, stating “I know that I have the per-requisite knowledge to add value, as well as the experience to join with that of others in addressing the challenges of the apathy.
“What is important to us now is to assemble a good team of exco that will squarely face the challenges of the party at this particular time.
After the oncoming convention, he said, the party will be in a position to face any challenges, stating that for the mere fact that “we are stable enough to face the challenges of running a national convention at this time shows you that we are in upward climb”.
He urged PDP faithful in the country, especially those in Abia to keep hope alive, stating “The consciousness of having a stable party is in the minds of every member because we want to provide a viral opposition, quality party administration, to jump-start the consciousness of our people and prime and prepare them to face the challenges.
“The whole process will lead us to victory in 2019”.
