PDP Begs For OBJ’s Forgiveness, Ask Him To Return To The Party

The People’s Democratic Party, PDP has pleaded for forgiveness from its former BoT leader, President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Speaking at the party’s secretariat in Abuja yesterday, Alhaji Muazu, who is the current National Chairman of the PDP said:

“I want to join OGD, I want to join my dear senior brother and indeed all the teeming members here to very sincerely apologise to our leader, to our baba, my baba, General Olusegun Obasanjo to forgive us. We cannot continue. I know he has been very prayerful. In the Villa, I know he used to pray every morning. Very early, 5:30 to 6am, he was praying.

And I know he keeps on praying all the time. As we say in our Lord’s Prayer: “Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who trespass against us”.

“Baba, you have to forgive us. I beg you in the name of the almighty God, so that you too are forgiven. We are your children. We are making mistakes, we have made mistakes, we have apologised, we will not agree even if you want to throw the baby with the bath water, the baby will not go with you.

”So, please baba, we apologise. Come and lead us. Even the president is waiting for you. Come and lead us. You are our leader, we appreciate you, we thank you for your leadership. We thank you for your courage. And we assure you that by the grace of God, we are all good boys and girls. “

Also speaking on the occasion, which marked his return to the PDP, Otunba Gbenga Daniel also known as OGD said:

“I have returned to my party. There is no situation where there are no differences, these differences have been settled.

“If Labour Party is actually strong in Ogun State, can it swallow PDP? It is the big fish that swallows the small fish and today PDP has swallowed Labour Party.”

Senate President, David Mark also pleaded with OBJ to return to the party:

“Daniel is right that older persons are always right.

“All of us in the PDP are begging Baba to forgive us even if he is annoyed with us. We truly apologise to him. He should forgive us because he cannot throw us away; He will have to forgive us and make sure we are not sheep without shepherd”.
