The member of the House of Representatives,
whose election, along with others from Rivers
State was cancelled, said what party bigwigs
should do was to drop individual differences and
work for common good ahead of the next general
election.
“PDP has a very clear chance in 2019. What we
need to do as a party is to get PDP bonded,” he
told Daily Trust.
“I can tell you authoritatively that a whole lot of
those people you see in the APC today will
definitely return to the PDP. This is because they
can’t find what they expected to see in the APC.
“With what is happening in the government of the
APC at the national level, with a little more work,
PDP will take back power in 2019”, he stated.
On the trial of Senate President, Bukola Saraki,
Dumnamene said the PDP would capitalize on
the issue to produce the next president of the
Senate.
“It is very possible. But looking at the issue of
Saraki, you will no doubt see that there is so
much political undertone. Those are the things
we talk about in this country – political witch
hunt.
“Look at the so called fight against corruption, it
is skewed. Saraki did not emerge the Senate
President from the mainstream APC. With what
is going on now, one can say that there is witch
hunt.
“Crimes that had been committed many years
ago are being brought up now. Whichever way it
goes, the PDP caucus in the Senate is very
organized and focused and has what it takes to
produce the next Senate President”, he added.
