The opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has revealed its top plan to lure back the former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, Senate President, Bukola Saraki, former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, among others, to the party, ahead of 2019.
The Chairman of the National Caretaker Committee of the PDP, Ahmed Makarfi, unveiled this strategy on Sunday.
In an interview with Sunday Punch, Makarfi stated that a Peace Committee has been inaugurated, at national and zonal levels to that effect.
"There is a plan to mobilise many people. We inaugurated the Peace Committee at the national and zonal levels, and we have given them terms of reference to their work, in terms of reconciliation and mobilisation. We hope they succeed in wooing these people back to the PDP", he said.
On the 2019 Presidential elections, Makarfi said: "The PDP will field a strong candidate from the North to face Buhari, or whoever the APC presents. Buhari must go in 2019.
"I honestly don't see him winning a second term, because we have concluded plans to defeat the APC in 2019. I believe the PDP will win that Presidential election, once we field a good candidate."
