The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, has said that very soon the All Progressive Congress will soon realize that he is an attack dog, adding that PDP will not go into any alliance with the incoming administration of the opposition APC.
He has promised that instead of being friendly with the incoming government of Muhammadu Buhari, the APC will know that he, as the PDP chairman, is an attack dog.
Mu’azu, who made the declaration while answering questions from journalists in Umuahia, Abia State, after his visit to Governor Theodore Orji on Thursday night, said PDP would rather give a tough opposition to APC from May 29 after the latter takes over power.
The PDP Chairman was accompanied on the visit by the PDP Deputy National Chairman, Uche Secondus, and National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh.
“By the special grace of God, we will give them a run for their money; that I can assure you under my leadership despite that I am accused of not being an attack dog. They will understand it later. I will wait until such a time when God gives me the opportunity; then they will know whether or not I am an attack dog.”
“The PDP National Working Committee, under my supervision, will be able to rebrand the party, redirect the party, and ensure that the party takes up its national and state leadership position.
“The mistakes we have made individually and collectively will be analysed by a committee and pass to us for implementation to ensure success in subsequent elections,” he stated,
On the PDP’s poor outing at the polls, Muazu said he had taken full responsibility, but submitted that “power comes from God; PDP is under testing by God.”
The PDP chairman added, “Unfortunately for them, the responsibility as to whether we succeed or fail, does not solely rest on the National Working Committee. However, I have repeatedly said it that success has too many fathers and brothers too. Failure has non. I have taken full and total responsibility for whatever has happened to the party now.
“I believe in God. And I also believe in destiny and I also believe that power and glory belong to the Almighty God. He gives to whom he wants when he wants. Therefore, he has taken it from us. We give thanks to him all the same today and in the future, and forever, we will remain thankful unto him.
“I assure you that we are under test by God and God will not let us fail. We will succeed. We will pass this test. ”
During a courtesy session earlier with Orji, Muazu expressed concern over the manipulation of results in some quarters to rob PDP of victory in Abia governorship poll but vowed that the party would vigorously resist such moves.
Orji thanked him for the visit, and said the visit would help ginger the morale of PDP members in the state.
