The chairman of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP), Kawu Baraje, has admitted they returned to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), because they “got their fingers burnt”.
Baraje stated this aPDPt the Shehu Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja on Monday, where the PDP, R-APC, SDP and over 30 political parties signed a memorandum of understanding.
He thanked the PDP for accepting him and his members back into the party.
“If a child goes out and gets his finger burnt, he returns before he gets the entire hand burnt,” he said.
Members of the nPDP who left the then ruling party for the APC, are however yet to formally declare their exit.
Instead, they joined others within the APC, to form a faction tagged R-APC.
