Makinde, speaking during an interview on Channels Television on Thursday, boasted that the Peoples Democratic Party has “eminently qualified” personalities that can lead Nigeria.“Once PDP governors are able to move in one direction, align on most of the issues and the challenges we are faced with, I think there is hope for this country.“Some have indicated interest like former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, like governor Tambuwal, like governor Bala Mohammed.

“The bottom line is when we get to that bridge, we will definitely cross it. What is important at this stage, which I will solicit the support of PDP members and the generality of Nigerians, is please support us to have a successful national convention. “There is no way you can become anything — president, vice-president, even governor — if we don’t have a party.
