PDP will lose in 2023 if members continue to fight: Ex-Kaduna governor

Former Governor of Kaduna State, Mukhtar Yero, has urged stakeholders in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to unite to enable the party sweep polls in the 2023 general elections.
“It is important for the PDP family to come together to rescue the country,” Mr Yero said in an interview on Sunday in Kaduna.
He added, “But if we continue to fight each other and only promote our personal interests, we will end up losing.”
The former governor reiterated that it was imperative for the party members to unite for a better future.
“So that when Nigeria becomes a better country, all of us will rejoice and will be happy with the situation,” he said.
Also, Mr Yero admonished the youths to use the 2023 elections to establish themselves as “true leaders of tomorrow.”
He advised the youth not to allow themselves to be hoodwinked by self-seeking politicians and vote credible leaders to ensure a better future for the country.
On security, Mr Yero urged relevant authorities to use all the resources available to address the problem.
“There is a need to create more jobs for people because part of the problem has been a lack of jobs.
“That is why we have so many informants around, because they have no jobs, they easily give information for a small token,” he said.
