Lolz - There is no Goodluck in Corruption - Femi Aribisala

In its days of arrogance, when some of its members boasted they would rule Nigeria for a proverbial thousand years, the PDP (Peoples Democratic Party of Nigeria) proclaimed itself the largest political party in Africa. Today, the party is afraid that the rival APC (All Progressives Congress) would declare far larger membership strength than the PDP as a result of its recent membership-registration drive. What a difference a day makes in Nigerian politics.



Rather than being the largest party in Africa, a more accurate description of the PDP is that it is the most fraudulent. The PDP is a party of thieves, rogues, swindlers, charlatans, extortionists and 419 experts. If you don’t believe me, take a look at this who-is-who of PDP governors who were indicted by the EFCC on charges of corruption. James Ibori ( PDP Delta); D.S.P. Alamieyeseigha (PDP Bayelsa); Lucky Igbinedion (PDP Edo); Peter Odili (PDP Rivers); Chimaroke Nnamani (PDP- Enugu); Joshua Dariye (PDP Plateau); Ikedi Ohakim (PDP Imo); Ayo Fayose (PDP- Ekiti); Rasheed Ladoja (PDP Oyo); Alao Akala (PDP Oyo); Gbenga Daniel (PDP Ogun); Jolly Nyame (PDP Taraba); Abdulahi Adamu (PDP Nassarawa); Boni Haruna (PDP Adamawa); Saminu Turaki (PDP Jigawa); and Orji Uzor Kalu (PDP Abia).

Like a contagious life-threatening disease, PDP has been an affliction on Nigeria for the last 15 years. The jury is still out on whether Nigeria will survive its contagion. But there is some indication that finally, gradually, the PDP is being cut down to size. The emergence of the APC and the massive defections from the PDP to it; have sent shocks to the PDP system. As a result, it has sobered up. The old arrogance has gone, or at least, is in remission. The cavalier contempt for Nigerians has disappeared. It is time for a massive self-introspection by this PDP albatross, if it is not soon to be consigned wholesale into the dustbin of history.
