2023: PDP in talks with 11 parties for alliance

44 days to the 2023 presidential election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that it is in talks with 11 other parties for an alliance.

NEWS BREAK reports that the PDP revelation is coming 24 hours after the reports emerged of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) opting for a similar strategy.

According to the PDP’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Abdullahi, the party has commenced talks with close to a dozen parties and welcomes more groups to come on board.

“There are a good number of them, but it will not be wise to publicly list them out.

“At the last time I checked, we were in talks with over 11 of them.

“They approached us to express their willingness to partner with us towards ensuring credible elections in 2023. That is the way they put it, but you and I know what that means.

“These are parties with candidates who are not strong enough. I can confirm to you that there is a working arrangement, and we want to see more of such parties or groups. Together, we will salvage this country.

“They know the strength of the PDP and the pedigree of its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar,” Punch quotes Abdullahi as saying.
