I have learnt now how important it is to document my thoughts here. Here we go!
PDP current strategy of attacking people for the choices they made in 2015 is pathetic at best especially now you are telling them to do the same as you will be beneficiaries
Telling people that they should have remembered Buhari's government of 1984 and that he wouldn't have changed is the same as telling people that they should remember your government of 2014 and you also will not change.
The current people especially young people that you pack yourselves as packs to attack are the same people you will need to help you dethrone the incumbent.
You have turned them to enemies.
Enough of the whining and bitterness over your 2015 loss of election. It shows that you are lacking in ideas for the country. If that is all you have to do after 6 years
What then do I think should be done? Let me visit my April 2015 tweet.
It says re- consolidate, re- strategise and make the party stronger.
Remove the re!
Start the party from ground zero.
Dismantle the current structure and build it!
PDP as you all know it should be buried by you the members and from it build a stronger more refined party with ideology where competence, character, capacity, courage, empathy and patriotism are the qualities needed from the members not how much money you have.
People like Atiku Abubakar @atiku and Saraki should take a back seat. He will easily cross over to APC anyway and people like Frank Nweke Jnr @FrankNwekeII and Peter Obi should be in the front seat ( Perception is everything)
The youth are yearning for political voice. Give them!
Not your usual sycophancy youths ooooh. Those ones should take a back seat.
Women are key to Nation building and are important in reform ensure your party is female oriented. Not the usual tokenism but real proper integration
At this moment you should revamp your board, officials etc
Offices should be held by 30% men 30% women and 40% youth ( made up of 20% female youth and 20% male youth)
Anybody above 35 is not youth
You will not need to be shouting you are different from APC, it will begin to show
Get your ideology not only on paper but also followed.
Revamp your constitution.
Reduce the role money plays in getting party tickets.
Ensure value based candidates are what Nigeria gets from you.
Do you think Nigeria forgot how in 2019 PDP as well as APC knocked out its youth candidates?
No be by shouting, na by showing it!
Imagine PDP revamps its constitution to say its party tickets will reflect 30% men 30% women 40% youth ( of which 50% will be female and 50% male)
Crazy right?!
You need crazy to set things going and break from the past!
Anyway, what do I know?
For those that will come and insult me, when you are done close the door as you leave so mosquitoes will not bite us 🙂

Most critical of PDP when?
It helps you if you are looking for how issues are rather than how you would have loved issues to be. Stop listening to yourselves. Listen to those outside.
Citizens who have no loyalty to parties are the deciders and 2019 they stayed out!
You abuse people's sensibilities when you come shouting that they are not the same. It might be endearing to your fellow party members but the citizens who were on the receiving end are not so endeared. Many might not talk but will decide on the election day.
By not voting!
How many of the critical PDP members criticised the then sitting Governor of your State being stopped from flying during PDP or the National Assembly being attacked during PDP or opposition party members being arrested on the eve of election during PDP?

Politicians are doing all they can to keep the people under their control and religion is an effective way. So all that hisbah is doing is to make the poor calm so that they can endure all the hardship while believing that the ideal Islamic world is being made for them.
Where was hisbah during Ganduje's daughters wedding? Yet they were available to cut a young man's hair.
Where is hisbah when the children of the rich are having their decadent parties? Where is hisbah when it comes to the videos of @GovUmarGanduje allegedly pocketing millions of$
Why is hisbah not at the fore front of ensuring child support payments? Is that not part of sharia?
Why is hisbah not focused on banning child begging?Is it not against Islam? Why is hisbah not arresting parents who are not taking care of their children? Is it not against Islam?

My mother's immediate junior brother told my mother and myself in the presence of my grandmother his mum that we will die in poverty and wretched. He said a lot of nasty things to my mum that he had been saying to me that I never told my mum. I was living with him then and in JS3
I will never forget how my mum wept bitterly. This was a man my mum practically raised. When he got married he couldn't afford rent and lived with us. When he started a daycare centre and school my parents invested in in for him. When poverty struck us he became nasty!
Poverty is a canceller!

In 2011 Jigawa gave Jonathan 491,252 votes while giving Buhari 663,994 yet some come here shouting that Jonathan was voted out in 2015 because of his region & religion. When he won, what region was he & what religion was he?

When they marched and said #EnoughIsEnough and Jonathan should be made Acting President in 2010 you called them heroes. When they marched and said fuel subsidy should be removed in 2012 you called them zeroes.
#YouAreNaijaSycophants
When they voted Jonathan in 2011 you called them patriots but when they refused to vote Jonathan in 2015 you called them traitors
#YouAreNaijaSycophants
Your concern is that the one you like must be praised and you be the ones that continue to have access to give out bad governance

On January 1st 2012 fuel subsidy was removed and for me it was the best News ever! Finally, the govt was doing something right!
My support for the removal of subsidy was the reason I never joined #OccupyNigeria protest. I saluted the Nigerians that did
#BuhariFuelSubsidyScam
I saluted the Nigerians that did, because for the first time, I saw Nigerians uniting and making demands like I have never seen before except during the 1993 elections
#BuhariFuelSubsidyScam
I watched aghast as citizens were attacked and killed by security agents across the Nation and finally the reduction and compromise reached by government and NLC and for me it was all heartbreaking.
