Chairman, Senate Committee on Gas, Jarigbe Agom-Jarigbe, says the current crisis rocking the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, would not be the end of the party.
Atom-Jarigbe, expressed this optimism at a town hall meeting on Sunday in Obudu, Cross River State.
The Cross River North Senator, who used the town hall to reel out his scorecard in the last two years, debunked his remoured defection to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
According to him, the crisis rocking the party would soon be resolved to the benefit of all.
He assured his constituents of the plan by the PDP to receive what he described as political heavyweights from the state’s All Progressive Congress, APC.
“It is true that there are some issues at the national level. But those issues are going to be resolved. The election is not tomorrow. The election is not next week. It is not next year.
“I don’t want us to distract ourselves with all of that. It’s time for governance. We have no excuse not to deliver. We want you to hold us accountable.
“Party politics is different, but I have to share a few things with you. There are issues surrounding who will be National Secretary and who will not be. But those issues will be resolved. There is nothing like the PDP will not be able to file candidates,” he said.
The lawmaker explained that it was very necessary for him to interface with the people whose mandate he held to give account of his stewardship for the period of two years in the 10th assembly.
Agom-Jarigbe charged the people to draw his attention to areas of concern where he needed to focus on in the next two years.
Meanwhile, a former Vice Chancellor of the University of Calabar, Prof. Zana Akpagu has declared his intention to formerly join the PDP in Cross River.
Akpagu, who joined Agom-Jarigbe at the town hall meeting, expressed satisfaction at the overwhelming demonstration of love and support for the senator.
