Olusola FabiyiThe National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Uche Secondus, has assured Nigerians that the party will play a robust and vibrant opposition role in 2018. Secondus stated this in a New Year message to Nigerians released in Abuja on Saturday, adding that the plans of anti-democratic forces against the PDP in 2017 failed because God and Nigerians still desired to have the party return to power. He said the worst was over for the PDP and that the party was ready and re-energised to play its statutory role in the polity to deepen the country’s democracy. “The New Year 2018 is strategic and critical in the political life of the nation because activities in the year will determine the success or otherwise of 2019,” he said.
