It's no longer news that the Senate president has left the troubled direction less boat of APC.
And while leaving he made some valid point in my view which I hope and think everyone should consider.

"Never before had so many people in so many parts of our country felt so alienated from their Nigerianness. Therefore, we understand that the greatest task before us is to reunite the county and give everyone a sense of belonging regardless of region or religion.
Every Nigerian must have an instinctive confidence that he or she will be treated with justice and equity in any part of the country regardless of the language they speak or how they worship God. This is the great task that trumps all. Unless we are able to achieve this, all other claim to progress no matter how defined, would remain unsustainable"

He went on to give reasons on why he chose his former party, the PDP. For me the PDP is not so different from APC, but is a better structured political party than the APC. Hear him.

" Today, I start as I return to the party where I began my political journey, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

When we left the PDP to join the then nascent coalition of All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2014, we left in a quest for justice, equity and inclusion; the fundamental principles on which the PDP was originally built but which it had deviated from. We were attracted to the APC by its promise of change. We fought hard along with others and defeated the PDP.

In retrospect, it is now evident that the PDP has learnt more from its defeat than the APC has learnt from its victory. The PDP that we return to is now a party that has learnt its lessons the hard way and have realized that no member of the party should be taken for granted; a party that has realized that inclusion, justice and equity are basic precondition for peace; a party that has realized that never again can the people of Nigeria be taken for granted."

If you ask me what I think about all this, I will tell you straight up, APC failed just a week after they won the election, in fact they started failing when the could not read between the lines that Buhari was not the best candidate. They started failing when after two weeks of victory there was nothing else but sleeping on the effect of expired kunu they drank for celebrating their victory they never expected.

Hope we all still remember that months into this administration there was no direction that one could say they were facing, but every one developed a unique ability to read the body movement of the president rather than reading policy statements which were never available till recently. By which time the economy was gone! Many foreign investors took the next flight out with their funds with no clear policy from the change singer

Many were quick to ignorantly blame the the Jonathan administration for the economic woes but fail to remember how they handed it over. How many economies can survive the negligence and clulessness this administration subjected it to for the first two and a half years while learning on the job?

Now that the dust is being raised by defection and impeachments before it settles, let us think and come up with a clear solution to the problems we have. The PDP or APC do not really have the solution to Nigeria's problems! If only a new party with a good ideology and a ready made plan on how to solve the problem can come up so we line up behind them, if only!
