2019 Elections: Nigerians are tired of APC, says Jerry Gana

Jerry Gana says PDP will take over in 2019.

Former Minister of Information and Culture, Prof Jerry Gana, says Nigerians are tired of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and eager to have the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) take over in 2019.

Gana said this on Monday while speaking at a consultative meeting between one of the aspirants of the national chairman of the party, Professor Tunde Adeniran and the delegates of the party from Northwest in Kaduna.

“Nigerians are tired of APC and they are eagerly waiting for us (PDP) to put our house in order. Agreed we have made mistakes during our 16 years of reign in government but we have learned our lessons and we are telling Nigerians that we are sorry.”

“We have a duty to restore the hopes of many hopeless Nigerians who now see PDP as an alternative platform to take over power in 2019,” he said.

He also called on the delegates to cast their votes for Adeniran as the party’s chairman saying, he is the man that can make the party move forward .

“They decided to support Adeniran for three reasons: When the party wanted to make headway in the southwest in 2003, he helped us to mobilise the people of the zone.

“Secondly, here is a man if elected the ruling APC will not witch hunt over corrupt charges, and lastly because as one of the founding fathers of the party he will put the programme of the party forward,” he stated.
