The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP will win the governorship in at least 28 states of the federation and the Nigerian presidency in 2023, the Governor of Sokoto State, Ahmadu Fintiri has said.
Fintiri, who is the Chairman of the PDP National Convention Organising Committee, stated these at the inauguration of the committee in Abuja on Friday.
He promised that the elective national convention of the PDP will be one of the best, meet expectations of Nigerians and lead the party to victory in 2023.
He said that the committee was aware of the task ahead, knowing what Nigerians, especially the youth, were expecting from PDP.
“With the caliber of the people that make up this committee, I stand tall to be proud that this convention is going to be a successful one and one of the best.
“We are in an extraordinary time, and we expect to have an extra ordinary national working committee after this convention.
“This is what Nigerians are expecting from us, so that it will be a takeoff point for this party going into 2023 election,” Fintiri said.
He said that it was not the first time PDP would be having such convention, neither was it the first time he would be heading such a committee for the party.
“I have steered and conducted one of the toughest conventions in Kogi Governorship election and I came out smooth.
“I know by the grace of God, that we’re going to have one of the best conventions and all of the best national working committee.”
Fintiri, who commended the present leadership of PDP for increasing the number of the party governors in the last general elections, said that by 2023, PDP would have not less than 28 governors and president.
