A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party in Sokoto State, Alhaji Yusuf Dingyadi, has said the chances of the party winning the February 25 election is very bright.
Dingyadi, who stated this in an interview with newsmen in Sokoto on Wednesday, described the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar, as a decent person and someone who understands the problems facing the nation and is capable of transforming the country for better.
He appreciated Nigerians, especially PDP supporters across the country who had come out from their villages, towns, and cities to welcome the presidential team during campaign rallies.
He explained that bad weather and security issues were the reasons behind non-conduct of Peoples Democratic Party presidential rallies in Taraba and Rivers states.
Dingyadi, a member of the Media Advisory Committee of the Atiku/Okowa campaign organisation said rally in Jalingo, was scheduled due to unfavourable climatic condition that prevented flight schedules while the issue of security prevented the rally in Port Harcourt.
“We have responsible political rallies because people came out despite the insecurity, fuel, and new naira notes scarcity in the country.
”The chance of PDP is very bright, in fact, brighter than ever before, since we (PDP) left power in 2010,” he added.
