Former Sokoto State governor, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, has advised members of the Peoples Democratic party (PDP) to intensify prayers and seek forgiveness from God.
Bafarawa said the PDP lost power in 2015 after reigning for 16 years because the party offended God.
He stated this on Saturday at the PDP Northwest zonal rally in Katsina.
The former governor said, “It is the sins that the PDP members committed that God is punishing them with it.
“Almighty Allah does not make mistakes and that was the reason why when the PDP offended him, He snatched the power and handed it to APC”.
Also speaking, Governor of Gombe State, Ibrahim Dankwambo, charged Nigerians to shun all forms of corrupt practices and rise up and challenge the evil of corruption in the country.
“Corruption is an evil deed that retards the progress of any nation,’’ he said.
In his remarks, former Katsina state governor, Ibrahim Shema backed calls for the restructuring of the country, saying it would result in rapid development of the nation.
He particularly said that the banking and political sectors must be restructured to encourage all citizens to be a part of the Nigerian project.
Shema stressed that Nigerians need not to panic over the agitations by some well-meaning citizens regarding the restructuring project.
On his part, former governor of Niger State, Muazu Babangida Aliyu advised PDP members to close ranks and work towards the success of the party in the 2019 elections.
Aliyu stressed that without unity, the PDP will not regain the power that they held for nearly two decades.
