The former member of the Anambra State House of Assembly, who has been out of active politics for several years, advised the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to prioritize the party’s survival over personal ambitions. “The leadership of the party is complacent; they are just rigmarolling, looking for direction. A mega party cannot work in Nigeria today. The only thing the PDP needs now is to resolve its leadership challenges.
“If the government does the right thing, commend it, and criticize it when it does the wrong thing.
“We have a President today in Nigeria and I don’t think Bola Ahmed Tinubu is bad. I am impressed by his performance so far, but the PDP can provide a better alternative.
“The problem with PDP is credible leadership. Once there is credible leadership, every other thing will fall in place,” Okoye said.
