PDP mocks APC over u-turn on Nigeria’s restructuring

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed surprised in the “sudden interest” of the APC in restructuring “after several months of denial by elected and appointed officials that APC did not promise to restructure in its manifesto and during the 2015 campaigns”.

This is contained in a statement on Sunday by Dayo Adeyeye, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP National Caretaker Committee.

Adeyeye also clarified that the PDP has always believed in restructuring, in response to comments by the APC.
The spokesman said: “As the word implies, restructuring is a process of re-arrangement, re-organization or re-formation of the manner or way in which something (in this case governance) is done.
“As used in the Nigeria political lexicon, restructuring refers to the Modification of the System of governance to guarantee the socio-economic and political growth and development of the Nigerian people.
“It is imperative to inform Nigerians that our party is not against the restructuring of the system of governance in the country in a manner that places Nigeria firmly on the path of growth, development, and prosperity”.
The PDP spokesman explained that it was the commitment of his party to constantly seek solutions to the challenges confronting the nation that led it to amend its constitution.
He added that the party’s constitution was amended to include equitable devolution of power for greater functionality, national integration, rapid economic and social reconstruction.
Adeyeye said it was also against the backdrop of the commitment of the party to restructure the system of socio-political governance for better functionality and efficiency that made the party to organise the 2014 national conference.
“The administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan summoned a National Conference to recommend amendments to the Nigerian Constitution.
“This conference submitted a report with several proposed amendments to the constitution which the APC led Federal Government has refused to implement more than two years later.

“In light of the above, we reiterate our support for the restructuring of the system of governance in the country to ensure more functional and efficient governance at all tiers of government”.
