Deputy National Secretary-elect of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Arch. Setonji Koshoedo has said only his party has the capacity to wrest power from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 presidential election.
Speaking in an interview with DAILY INDEPENDENT on Friday, Koshoedo, former state chairman of the PDP in Lagos said any talk of a third force wresting power from APC in 2023 is a waste of time.
According to him, only the PDP has what it takes to match the APC in every way, especially in the areas of networking, ideology and resources.
He however said that to achieve that, the party must get it right in the selection of its presidential candidate in the primary slated for next year.
“Yes. I strongly believe that the PDP will return to power in 2023.PDP is the only party that has the structure to subdue APC. Any other party or third force is a waste of time”.
“Also in terms of political ideology and networking, even resources wise, you can be sure PDP will match APC in whatever way”.
“If we can manage the selection of our candidates the way we did in the convention, I’m sure we will take over power in 2023”.
