OBASANJO: Good Night To PDP

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday bade the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) good night, saying he will not return to the party.
Obasanjo spoke to journalists in Jalingo, Taraba, while assessing some projects initiated by his administration in the state.
The ex- President terminated his membership of PDP in February last year.
Speaking on the lingering crisis in the party which now has two national chairmen, Obasanjo said he had already bade PDP good night and cannot return to say good evening.
“In the part of the country where I come from, there is a saying that you cannot say ‘good night’ and come back to say ‘good evening’ in the same place.
“So for me, it is good night for the Peoples Democratic Party and that’s all,” he said.
He expressed confidence that President Muhammadu Buhari will surmount the present challenges confronting the country.
“So far Buhari has not disappointed us. I trust him (Buhari), he will not fail Nigerians. I know he will overcome the challenges the country is currently facing,” the ex-President added.
He also urged the President to complete the hydroelectric project on the Mambilla Plateau in Taraba.
