SOLUDO AKWETE REVOLUTION GAINS MOMENTUM AS PDP GOVERNORS ADORN THE LOCALLY MADE FABRIC IN THEIR MEETING IN ABIA STATE By Christian ABURIME  The revolution of patronising our locally made fabrics and products which Prof Chukwuma Charles Soludo, Governor of Anambra State spearheaded has started yielding dividends  In their on-going PDP Governors' meeting in Abia State, all the Governors who were at the meeting were seen all cladded in the locally-woven Akwaete.  All the Governors were looking splendid as they step out from their meeting wearing neatly woven Akwaete clothes  Governor Soludo has been largely credited with the promotion and marketing of the Akwaete fabrics. In his recent interview with Arise TV, Soludo asserted that his promotion of the local fabric has shot up the demand for it.  This assertion has been proved right with the PDP Governors who stepped out fully cladded in the locally made fabric today The 13 Governor’s of the PDP are H.E Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, H.E Godwi

March 23, 2022 Press Statement  You Are Afraid of Your Own Shadows, PDP Replies Buhari, APC …Says It Will Not Succumb to Blackmail The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the Buhari Presidency and the All Progressives Congress (APC) are running from their shadows and haunted by their failures in governance. PDP’s position is predicated on the outburst by the Buhari Presidency on Tuesday, March 22, 2022 against our Party for asking President Muhammadu Buhari to address the lingering fuel crisis and cautioning that the unrelenting culture of arrogance, impunity, suppression and corruption by the APC administration was akin to “kneeling on the necks of Nigerians.” From the outburst of the Buhari Presidency, Nigerians now realize that the APC administration does not care about the suffering, agony and life discounting experiences encountered by our citizens daily as a result of APC’s thoughtless and inhumane policies.  If there is anybody seeking to destabilize our nation, it is the sinkin
