“PDP is a party we lost in Cross River State, due to the poor leadership of the head of the party, we are where we are. Because of poor leadership, we lost the 2023 General elections, we lost the Local Government Elections, because our chairman lacks the charisma of leadership, lacks the charisma of carrying everybody along.
