The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, yesterday described those defecting from its fold to the All Progressives Congress, APC, as political Trojans, who from within have ceaselessly worked against the interest of the party and now fear that they would face sanctions for their actions.
This is even as more members of the party, including a former governor, serving lawmakers, among others have continued to defect to APC, which won the March 28 presidential poll.
PDP, in a statement by National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh said it would not miss such fair weather members.
The party commended the courage and steadfastness of its supporters and members who have remained committed to the course and urged them to go a step further by emulating Senate President, David Mark and Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu in speaking out publicity in favour of the party, its ideals and visions of the founding fathers.
The statement said adequate machinery is already in motion to reorganise and to reposition the party to regain power in the next four years since it is obvious that APC lacks what it takes to effectively lead the nation.
It called on Nigerians to use Saturday’s election to demonstrate their commitment to democracy by voting enmasse for its candidates, bearing in mind that a vote for the party is a vote for the unity and stability of the country.
