The National Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, has appealed to members who left the party for one reason or the other to return to its fold, promising them a new lease of life in the ruling party.

Speaking as he marked his 77th birthday in Abuja on Friday, he assured that special arrangement would be made for such former party men who would like to return as the PDP would assign them with special roles in its ongoing reform.  

According to the party boss, “For us to be one, indivisible and indissoluble political party ruling Nigeria since 1999, it may be necessary for me to beg our members who were aggrieved and hence left the party into different strange camps to come back home. It is time to rebuild Nigeria and all hands are needed to do so.

“The umbrella is big enough to accommodate all of us. So, our members who left us should please come back into the party, so we can resolve our differences and begin to move on as one people for one Nation Nigeria.”

Alhaji Tukur explained that he accepted the challenge of leading the PDP in order to give back to the country what the country has given him.

He appealed for support of party members and Nigerians in general for the Transformation agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan.

The party chairman reiterated that the PDP would soon set machinery in motion to engage its founding fathers, elders and stakeholders in rebuilding the party through his 12-point agenda of Reconciliation, Reformation and Rebuilding, which he stated was based on equity and justice.
