“A lot of people are hanging on, waiting to see the ultimate end of this party.”
Former Benue State Governor, Senator Gabriel Suswam, has warned that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) may not survive until the 2027 elections if urgent steps are not taken to resolve its internal crisis.
Appearing on Arise TV’s The Morning Show on Tuesday, Suswam likened the PDP’s condition to a patient in an ICU, saying, “Is it in the ICU to some extent? Yes, it is. Can it be rescued? Yes, if the proper medicine is applied.”
The PDP is grappling with leadership disputes and mass defections, including Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori and former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa joining the APC.
Suswam noted, “A lot of people are hanging on, waiting to see the ultimate end of this party.”
He expressed cautious hope in the rescue efforts led by ex-Senate President Bukola Saraki, whose outcome he said will be clearer in two weeks.
