- By Itodo D. Sule

The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Caucus of the House of Representa­tives has urged the National Chairman of its party, Prince Uche Secondus, to make personal sacrifices and resign honourably to enable the party to have an early start.

This was part of the resolution reached by the party’s Reps caucus after an online meeting held on Saturday, August 7 in respect of the lingering crisis in the party.

The caucus, in a statement jointly issued on Sunday by its chairman, Rep Kingsley Chinda and deputy, Rep Onyema Chukwuka, expressed concerns over the deteriorat­ing state of affairs of the party under the leadership of Secondus.

It said it was “concerned that a further three months under the rulership of the Chairman will do grave injustice to the party and put us in a precarious situation as every hour should matter now.”

The caucus also resolved to “asks the BoT and the Governors’ Forum of the PDP to ensure immediate and firm resolution of current challenges so as to enable a re-engineerin­g, re-focusing process that would restore party members and millions of other Nigerians’ hope and confidence in the PDP as an alternativ­e to the current dysfunctio­nal, irresponsi­ve and rudderless government of APC with its attendant suffering, miseries, political deceit, economic woes, insecurity and all-round disappoint­ment foisted on millions of Nigerian families across the federation.”
