The Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party in Kaduna State, Sa’idu Adamu, has called on the public to remain patient as the party formulates strategies to regain power in 2027.
He emphasized that the PDP aims to correct the alleged wrongs committed by the current All Progressives Congress administration.
In a separate development, the 2023 PDP governorship candidate for Kaduna State, Rt. Hon. Isa Mohammed Ashiru, extended Christmas greetings to Christians across the state.
He encouraged reflection on the values of kindness, unity, and peace during the holiday season. Ashiru acknowledged the economic difficulties faced by many Nigerians but stressed the enduring message of hope and compassion that Christmas symbolizes.
Ashiru also urged Christians to mark the season by supporting those in need, promoting peace within their communities, and striving for a fairer society. He expressed prayers for God’s blessings on families and encouraged citizens to travel safely and celebrate responsibly with their loved ones.
“Christmas is not just a time for festivities but an opportunity to reflect on the virtues of forgiveness, kindness, and unconditional love, as exemplified by the life of Jesus Christ,” Ashiru said.
At the same time, during a Christmas gift distribution event by Senator Lawal Adamu Usman (Mr LA) for Christians in his constituency, the PDP Secretary criticized the delay in the payment of December salaries to state civil servants. He described the delay as insensitive and lacking empathy, particularly since many states had already disbursed salaries. Adamu pointed out that the Kaduna State Government had not yet fulfilled its promise to implement the new minimum wage for civil servants, despite the urgent needs of workers and their families during the festive period.
Adamu reaffirmed the PDP’s commitment to reclaiming power in 2027. He assured the public that the party would work to address the issues caused by the APC’s leadership. The PDP, he said, intends to restore progress at both the state and national levels, making necessary changes to correct what he described as the APC’s mismanagement that has led the country and its citizens backward.
“It is insensitive and lack of empathy for the Kaduna State Government to delay the payments of December salaries even without the new minimum wage increase to the civil servants as promised in view of the urgent needs of the workers and their families, while in some state it has been paid almost few days ago.”
“By the grace of Allah, PDP will return to power at both state and national levels by 2027 and make crucial amendments of APC misrule that has taken the citizens and the nation backwards,” Adamu said.
