The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, on Wednesday, said free primaries would make the party to win the 2015 general elections with ease.

“We should be united to conduct free, fair and credible primaries as that would enable the party win elections. We must conduct primaries that should be acceptable to all and the candidate must be a winner. I know we can not satisfy everybody, but we must try our best.” Mu’azu said.

He spoke at the weekly meeting of the National Working Committee of the PDP, which held in Abuja on Wednesday.

The PDP chairman asked members of the National Working Committee of the party to join hands with him in building a party that conformed with the expectation of the founding fathers of the party.

As a mark of honour, members of the NWC did not hold their usual weekly meeting on Wednesday, but decided to present to Mu’azu a giant card, cake and flowers to commemorate his 59th birthday.

The Deputy National Chairman of the party, Prince Uche Secondus, conducted the event with all NWC members in attendance cutting the cake.

Mu’azu, while responding to the gesture, said, “This is a big surprise, I’m very grateful to God for my life and what you have done today. We will live in peace; all hands must be on deck to deliver PDP and you must all join me in working hard to help the party grow.”

Secondus said he was happy that Mu’azu had turned the party around for good since he came on board.

He assured the chairman that members of the NWC would work with him and support him in growing the party, adding that members of the NWC would continue to be with him as they move towards winning the June 21 Ekiti State gubernatorial election and subsequent ones.
