D-37 Backs Amb. Nkoyo Toyo’s Candidacy for PDP National Woman Leader

The D-37 political group is urging stakeholders in the PDP from Cross River State and the South South geopolitical zone to nominate H.E. Amb. Nkoyo Toyo for the vacant position of National Woman Leader. In a statement jointly issued by Chairman Sen. Victor Isa Kassem Oyofo and Secretary Dr. Alex Ter Adum, the group describes Amb. Nkoyo Toyo as the perfect fit for the role, emphasizing her proven integrity and transformative voice.

The statement highlights the challenges the PDP has faced recently, including electoral defeat and internal discord. With the unfortunate demise of Prof Stella Effah Attoe, the former National Woman Leader, the party faces the task of filling the vacuum left by her passing. The D-37 group stresses the importance of selecting a candidate with strong credentials and experience to navigate the media landscape and contribute to the party’s resurgence.

Amb. Nkoyo Toyo is portrayed as not only ably qualified but also a national figure and veteran advocate for women’s and human rights. The D-37 group argues that her visibility, charisma, and competence make her the ideal candidate to boost the PDP’s National Working Committee, attract new membership, and enhance the party’s overall fortunes.

The call for Nkoyo Toyo’s nomination is grounded in the belief that she brings a network that spans the entire country and possesses the legal acumen necessary for the role. The D-37 group asserts that overlooking her in favor of a less qualified candidate would demonstrate a lack of vision and planning on the part of the PDP leadership.

In conclusion, the D-37 group aligns itself as a political process thinking entity aligned with the PDP, urging stakeholders to consider H.E. Amb. Nkoyo Toyo as the National Woman Leader, asserting that she would be a “square peg in a square hole” for the party’s revitalization.
