The People's Democratic Party (PDP) is a major political party in Nigeria, founded in 1998. It emerged after the end of military rule and has played a significant role in the country's democratic process. The party's platform focuses on promoting social justice, economic development, and good governance. Over the years, the PDP has produced several presidents, including Olusegun Obasanjo, who served two terms from 1999 to 2007. The party has faced challenges, including internal conflicts and competition from other parties, notably the All Progressives Congress (APC), which has influenced Nigeria's political landscape.
