Acting National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP Umar Damagum says internal unrest in the party is being fuelled by members allowing negative influences to guide their actions. He made the remarks during a meeting in Abuja with state party chairmen led by forum chairman Tony Aziegbemi of Edo and forum secretary Edward Masha of Kaduna who visited to express their support.
Damagum cautioned those he believes are undermining the party and reminded them of consequences for disloyalty.
“I also want to use this opportunity to call on our colleagues that the devil is using to see wisdom in casting the devil in them because treachery especially to an institution that has made you what you are today will not heal. You may be lucky now but there is a law of Karma” he said.
“What goes around comes around. I think it is not late to see the need to do justice to this party that has given you all.”
He added that his approach sometimes gets mistaken for weakness but emphasised reliance on faith and accountability. “Sometimes when I resort to the ways of God people think it is weakness. We exist because God exists. We owe everything that we do to him. He is watching us. He will judge us by our behavior. I will leave this on this note. They say a word is enough for us.”
