Abuja - Sen. Smart Adeyemi (PDP Kogi West), has
called on the leadership of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) to be prepared to receive more
members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Adeyemi, Chairman, Senate Committee on FCT,
made the call when he led senators from Kogi on a
courtesy call on Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, PDP National
Chairman, in Abuja on Wednesday.
He said the visit was to drum support for the PDP
and to commend Mu`azu for his achievements
since he assumed office.

“The only thing that is sustaining the opposition is
for them to conduct their congress; the moment
they do that, we can start counting the number of
them that would come back.”
“We will continue to do all that we can to ensure the
success of Federal Government transformation
agenda and the continuation of PDP in 2015,” he
said.
Adeyemi said the PDP-led Federal Government had
succeeded in improving electricity and other critical
sectors of the country`s economy.
He said that the current security challenge facing
the country was a global problem, adding that it was
not synonymous to Nigeria.
He said that in spite of some challenges, the PDP
was the party that would take Nigerians to the
Promised Land.
Adeyemi said that though the PDP might not be the
best party in the country, it was still better than
other political parties, adding that the PDP was the
party to beat.

“If I tell you that the PDP is the best, I am telling
you there is no room for improvement,” he said.
The senator said that though opposition was good in
democracy, it should be in the interest of the
people and the advancement of the country.
He, however, said that opposition should not be
formed to victimise the government in power
because its members had not been settled.
He called on state governors to do more to ensure
better service delivery to the people through the
creation of employment opportunities for them.
“Job creation is not the sole responsibility of the
Federal Government. All tiers of government must
be involved in the process of providing job
opportunities for the people. Nigeria is a
federation,” he said.
Adeyemi said it was unfortunate that some
governors were acquiring private jets instead of
using such monies to create employment for the
people.
In his response, Mu`azu promised to sustain the
vision of the founding fathers of the people.
Mu`azu said that under his leadership, the PDP
would build a solid foundation for future generation
of Nigerians.
