PDP To Nigerian Workers on May Day – Resist Anti-democratic Forces
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Monday urged Nigerian workers to reinforce their resistance against anti-democratic forces seeking to take control of the Nation.
The PDP while saluting Nigerian workers as they celebrate this year’s Workers’ Day with their counterparts across the world, commended them for their resilience, loyalty and patriotism in serving our fatherland despite the “humiliating, suffocating and summersaulting anti-people economic policies” of the All Progressives Congress (APC) which have brought untold life-discounting experiences to Nigerians in the last eight years.
The Party in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, said that the deliberate suppression of the rights, wellbeing and opportunities of Nigerian workers reflects the ugly reality of the inhumanity, insensitivity and callousness of the APC administration which relishes in inflicting pain and suffering on citizens.
It noted that many Nigerians, especially workers are hurting over the outcome of the February 25, 2023 Presidential election which was characterized by multiple violations, manipulations, alteration of genuine election results and brazen subversion of the Will of the people.
The Party charges Nigerian workers to use their strength and pivotal position in our country to protect and defend the Nation’s Constitutional Democracy from political manipulators, who are desperate to dash the hope of Nigerians for a credible democratic leadership.
The PDP said that it will continue to recognize the devotion of Nigerian workers as real drivers of our national life, particularly in voting enmasse for our Party and its candidate, Atiku Abubakar, at the 2023 Presidential election, while assuring that it will not relent in its effort to retrieve the mandate at the Tribunal so that our nation can have a breath of fresh air which has eluded her in the last eight years.
It therefore urged Nigerians workers and indeed all citizens not to resign to despondency but remain optimistic in the hope that the judiciary will right the wrong meted on our Nation so that Nigeria can return to the path of peace, political stability and economic prosperity.
