PDP has been suffering a backlash since APC presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari became the Presidential elect beating President Goodluck Jonathan at his own game.
Tables turned when the unfortunate event that was the threat slip by the Oba of Lagos days ago and it is looking more like a slim chance for Guber candidate Akinwunmi Ambode as now – most people are edging towards the opposition.
PDP supporters strengthened in these times of APC despair and with it came the hashtag, #WeArePDP.
However, the tweets are somewhat a mixture of skepticism and hope as well as an affirmation regardless of what befalls the nation come April 11.
For example, this one twitter user is totally clueless as to what to do when the choice is placed on his laps as to whom to pick for the slot.
I have always wanted to vote @jimiagbaje but I don’t like all dis #WeArePDP things, I’m not sure about @AkinwunmiAmbode but I love his party

This one user is sure that regardless of what the Oba must have said, the PDP still stands no chance, not now, not ever.
#WeArePDP Once upon a time PDP said they will rule for 60yrs now they are in the opposition and rearing towards extinction Democracy at work

#WeArePDP before but now needs to move to the #APC. Which we all believe will govern us as a nation and not as slaves of the Ruling party.

Some are accepting their fate.
#WeArePDP we lost the presidency to APC, we are now the minority @ the national assembly, we are gradually fading off. We won’t come back

While some will forever remain skeptical.
Questions of the day: isn’t APC becoming the new PDP? #WeArePDP
