About PDP

PDP is a significant stakeholder in the Nigerian political sector and a prominent political party in Nigeria. Their slogan, “Power to the People” reaches the hearts of so many Nigerians. This slogan portrays how democratically inclined the People’s Democratic Party is and their submission and readiness to serve their followers.

The PDP’s symbol, the umbrella, is another factor that has endeared this political party to the heart of the masses. The common man believes that an umbrella protects him from unfriendly weather conditions; the same way he believes that PDP is most fit to rescue him from unbearable living conditions.

Over the years, PDP remained Nigeria’s most successful political party, winning all the presidential elections, from 1999 until 2011. The party has also won many gubernatorial elections in Nigeria. Currently, there is another closely successful political party in Nigeria, the APC which almost makes Nigeria an unofficial bilateral state.

There are so many political parties in Nigeria that any legitimate citizen of Nigeria (without social/ legal binding restrictions) may choose to be identified with.

Choosing to be identified with a particular political party, means you must fulfil all the party registration requirements to be considered a member of such a political party.

When you join the PDP – the largest political party in Africa, your membership card qualifies you to enjoy the privileges of the party.

If you have read up to this point, I’d be safe to assume that you are interested in getting a certified membership in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

In Nigeria, an individual cannot become a political official or run for an election without becoming a member of a political party. Being a PDP member would make you eligible to become an election candidate.
PDP has a lot of grassroots support and strength. It is known as the party of the masses. Apart from the rival party APC (All Progressives Congress), it is the only party that has a wide geographical and nationwide spread. To be a PDP member is to be part of a grassroots movement.
If you are interested in politics and want to have a say in who gets a particular candidacy in the country, then becoming a PDP member is one of the ways.
