3. Opening Remark: By the Acting Chairman, PDP Burutu L.G.A
Distinguished leaders, respected stakeholders, party faithful, and loyal members of our great party across the eleven wards of Burutu Local Government Area,
It is with a heart full of gratitude and appreciation that I welcome you all and extend my warmest regards. Today, I stand before you not just as Acting Chairman, but as a fellow comrade in the noble struggle to preserve, promote, and advance the ideals of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Burutu L.G.A.
I sincerely thank each and every one of you our ward leaders, unit executives, youth and women wings, elders, and stakeholders for your unwavering love, unity, and commitment to our party. Your dedication across all eleven wards has been the backbone of our continued relevance and strength at the grassroots level.
Despite the distractions and recent defections, I am proud to say that the true patriots of this party are still here standing strong, standing firm, and standing in love for the PDP. Those who left did not go with sincerity or vision, and their intentions were never in the interest of the people.
But we those of us who have chosen to remain, to consolidate, and to rebuild we are the future of this party. Your loyalty and sacrifices will not be in vain. I assure you, there will be a reward for every effort you have made to advance our cause. History will remember you as the ones who held the line, who chose loyalty over personal gain, and who believed in the enduring strength of our party.
Let us continue to work hand in hand, ward by ward, unit by unit, to deepen our reach and consolidate our structures. The journey is not over, but with unity and love, our victory is certain. Thank you
4. Sponsorship of the party:
Another key point I must commend us all for is our collective agreement and commitment to self-funding the party. In Burutu L.G.A, we have demonstrated political maturity and ownership by choosing not to wait for external help or rely solely on a few individuals. Instead, we have boldly embraced the responsibility of promoting PDP activities using our own resources.
We agreed and rightly so that, the strength and sustainability of our party lie within us. This decision is not only a show of love for the PDP, but a clear indication that we are ready to take charge of our destiny as a political family.
Every contribution whether financial, logistical, or moral has gone a long way in ensuring that our structures remain active, our presence felt, and our loyalty unshaken. And for that, I say a big thank you to all of you.
Let it be known that those who build the house are the ones who will live in it. Your sacrifices and support will never go unrewarded.
Together, we shall continue to strengthen PDP from the grassroots up, and no challenge will be too big for a united and self-reliant party like ours.
5. Status of Ward Excos:
To all our dedicated Ward Leaders across the eleven wards of Burutu Local Government Area,
As we continue to reposition and strengthen our great party at the grassroots, I am calling on all Ward Chairmen and Coordinators to urgently compile and submit the names of their full Ward Executive Committees (Excos). This exercise is crucial for proper documentation, strategic planning, and alignment with our ongoing reorganization efforts.
In doing so, I urge you to exercise caution, sincerity, and political vigilance. We must ensure that those appointed into sensitive positions are true party loyalists men and women who have stood with us through thick and thin. We cannot afford to empower opportunists or agents planted by opposition parties like APC, LP, or others who do not wish the PDP well.
We have seen how betrayal and sabotage from within have weakened some structures in the past. This must not be repeated. Let loyalty, integrity, and commitment to the PDP be the key criteria in selecting your excos.
This is a call to duty, and your cooperation is non-negotiable. Let us continue to build a united, trustworthy, and formidable PDP structure in Burutu that cannot be shaken by opposition forces.
6. A.O.B: Status of defectors, this was referred because of the legal loopholes and because the NWC is not yet validate the interim LG excos.
STATUS OF DEFECTORS
The issue regarding the status of defectors was brought up under Any Other Business (A.O.B). After due deliberation, it was acknowledged that while some individuals have defected from the PDP to other parties, their status remains unresolved due to certain legal and procedural loopholes currently under review.
It is important to note that, as of this moment, the National Working Committee (NWC) of our great party has not officially validated or ratified the Interim Local Government Excos. Therefore, any action or pronouncement concerning the defectors must be handled with political and legal caution to avoid complications that could jeopardize the party’s standing.
Members are advised to remain calm, focused, and committed to the party, as the appropriate organs of the PDP will soon take a definitive position on these matters. Our priority remains the strengthening of party structures and ensuring loyalty at all levels.
We must not allow the distractions of defectors to derail our consolidation efforts. Instead, let us continue to build with those who are truly committed to the PDP and the future of Burutu L.G.A.
