The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged Nigerians to step
into 2019 with unwavering optimism, faith and hope of a new era of
peace, national cohesion and economic prosperity.
The party made the call in a new year
message issued by the Director, Media and Publicity, PDP Presidential
Campaign Organisation, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Monday in Abuja.
Ologbondiyan, who congratulated Nigerians for
seeing 2019, urged them to use the New Year to pray against all negative
projections and more hardship.
He also urged them to vote PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on Feb.16, 2019 to bring in new hope.
He said that Abubakar already articulated a
practical blueprint to ease their burden by engendering rapid economic
recovery, national cohesion and realistic solutions to the country’s
myriad of challenges.
According to him, 2019, as an election year,
offers citizens their much-desired opportunity to end the trajectory of
economic hardship, hunger and starvation, high unemployment figures and
killings.
He said that the citizens had made
immeasurable sacrifices to keep the nation going and now eagerly long
for a breath of fresh air under Abubakar as their next President.
“Nigerians should therefore be optimistic
as their incoming President will usher in a new era of a transparent and
responsive government.
“Government with the template for wealth
creation, job opportunities and revitalization of our productive sector
through tax cuts and direct empowerment of our hard working
entrepreneurs in a manner that increases our national productivity,
reduce costs of goods and services, increase exports and shore up the
valueof our naira. “
He said that Abubakar, as a new symbol of
national unity, had also perfected the outline for national
reconciliation, healing and ending of all divisive tendencies.
Ologbondiyan urged Nigerians to maintain their
resolve to make the nation work again by continuing to rally
behind Abubakar to rescue the nation.
