A former presidential candidate, publisher, and journalist, Dele Momodu, has joined Nigeriaโs main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party.
Momodu announced this in a statement on Friday.
He explained that his decision was to contribute meaningfully to the development of the country.
The former presidential candidate complained that the achievements recorded under the PDP administration โhave been diluted, wasted, or diminished by the present APC government.โ
He said, โI have consulted widely. And it is clear to me that given the dangerous and disastrous drift that our nation has experienced in the past six years, the only party from which amends can be made to rectify our situation is the Peoples Democratic Party.
โThis accords with my vehement opposition to the policies and practices of the All Progressive Congress and its leadership, which has denuded our country of everything we hold dear โ national unity, cohesion, security, economic prosperity, educational advancement, social infrastructure, and above all, our cherished moral values.
โFor these reasons, I am happy to declare that I am now a full-fledged participating member of the great and patriotic Peoples Democratic Party.
