PDP governors to meet on Monday to ‘strategise as APC’s alternative’

Governors under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are to meet on Monday to discuss the state of affairs in Nigeria.

The party announced in a statement on Sunday that the meeting will hold in Ibadan, Oyo state capital.

Cyril Maduabum, director-general of the PDP Governors’ Forum, said the meeting will “fine-tune strategies” to support the party as an alternative to the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration.

Maduabum said the meeting will be attended by the 15 governors in the party under the chairmanship of Aminu Tambuwal, governor of Sokoto state.

“The meeting will further review the current state of the nation, especially issues of national security and the economy,” he said.

“Also fine-tune strategies to support PDP as a viable and necessary alternative to the All Progressives Congress administration.”

This will be the second time in about five months that the PDP governors will meet, having met in Benue on April 9.
