A youth Group under the auspice of PDP National Youth Amendment Movement (NYAM) has said former Nigeria’s Senate Minority Leader of the 10th Senate has the capacity, charisma, potentials and capabilities to make the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) at the National Level better and more result-oriented.
In a statement signed by Comdr. Muhammad Sadiq Almusanah, the
National Coordinator of the group and made available to this medium, the group disclosed that is has the firm belief that one very important issue to be discussed should center on the substantive chairman of the party, whose seat became vacant, which brought in the interim leadership of Ambassador Umar Damagum.
In that regards, the group said it is important that the Office is returned back to the North Central Zone where the former National Chairman, Sen. Iyorchia Ayu hails from.
The group said Senator Simon Mwadkwon was a former Chairman of Riyom Local Government Area, two-term House of Representatives Member for Barkin Ladi/Riyom Federal Constituency, former Senator Plateau North and Senate Minority Leader of the 10th Senate which made him better prepared and equipped to occupy the office of the National Chairman of the Party if the position is returned to the North Central Zone.
The full press text reads:
Press Release
PDP National Youth Amendment Movement (NYAM)
Information at our disposal indicating that the National Executive Committee (NEC), meeting of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), is set to be held soon, is hereby received with high hope and expectations that our leaders are set to discuss issues of great concern towards advancing the real ideals and principles of the party.
We are of the firm belief that one very important issue to be discussed should center on the substantive chairman of the party, whose seat became vacant, which brought in the interim leadership of Ambassador Umar Damagum.
In this direction, it is our resolved bourne out of the firm conviction that, the NEC, will consider reverting back the national chairmanship of the PDP, to its rightful place of North Central, whose former chairman Ayochia Ayu’s, tenure has not ended, but due to urgency, it was decided that his deputy should lead pending further decision at the party hierarchy.
We are particularly, confident that the NEC should not only consider reverting the seat to North Central but also see reasons to support if not anointing Former Minority leader of the Senate, Senator Simon Mwadkwon, to serve as the National Chairman.
We are again of the firm view that, Senator Mwadkwon, having been a loyal and dedicated party stalwart, is from Plateau State, from where the founding father and maiden chairman of the party, held and since its formation the PDP, has remained stronger in the State.
With the victory of the party winning almost all national and state houses of Assembly, seats with a seating Governor in the State, having regained our position from then seating Government of the APC, with the good efforts put in place by Senator Simon Mwadkwon, it will be a good decision to see Senator Simon Mwadkwon, emerging as the National Chairman of the PDP.
His incidents as a grassroots politician, rising from Executive Chairman of Riyom Local Government Council, with good track records of achievement, to his twice vibrant representations of Barkin Ladi/Riyom Federal Constituency, and later elected as Senator that represented the Plateau North Senatorial district, where the PDP and other opposition parties deemed it wise for Senator Mwadkwon to be the minority leader, and with this synopsis, we are of the view that better times await the PDP, with him as substantive Chairman.
Signed:
Comdr. Muhammad Sadiq Almusanah,
National Coordinator,
PDP NYAM.
