Kogi PDP Congress have become Personal Business of Greedy Politicians— Omachi withdraws from from Congress
August 31, 2024
My name is Omachi Isaac Achor, and I was a contestant for the position of PDP State Publicity Secretary. However, I am left with no choice but to boycott the PDP congress due to the pervasive injustice and undemocratic practices within the party.
Despite being in opposition, the PDP has failed to learn from its past mistakes and has continued to repeat them. The elders of the party have hijacked the PDP, turning it into an avenue for their personal interests and businesses. The congress process lacks transparency, and the voices of young people are silenced.

As a young person who contested for a position, I can attest that the party has no room for youth participation. It’s disheartening to see that the party doesn’t believe in empowering young people, despite their potential and enthusiasm.
I refuse to be part of a process that disenfranchises young people and perpetuates injustice. I call on fellow young party members to join me in boycotting the congress and demanding a more inclusive and transparent party.
We need a PDP that values youth participation, transparency, and accountability. Anything less is unacceptable. The party must reform and learn to trust and empower young people, or risk losing relevance and credibility.
I demand justice and transparency in the PDP. I demand a party that believes in young people. Anything less is unacceptable.
