The so-called press statement credited to one Comrade Ini Ememobong reads less like a responsible communication from a National Publicity Secretary and more like a panicked monologue of an imposter that has run out of political, moral, and legal capital.
Let us state clearly and without equivocation: no individual, imposters, or self-appointed structure within the Peoples Democratic Party has the authority to determine which court processes deserve obedience and which should be treated with contempt. That power resides solely with the courts and the relevant statutory authorities, not with press releases, not with threats, and certainly not with emotional blackmail.
The attempt to cloak partisan desperation under the robe of legal sanctity is both disingenuous and intellectually dishonest.
While some imposters continue to cherry-pick litigation that suits their narrow interest, the fact remains that multiple suits, conflicting orders, and subsisting appeals exist around the status, leadership, and administrative control of the PDP. You cannot elevate one case as sacred scripture while pretending others do not exist. Law is not a buffet where you pick what favors you and discard the rest.
More importantly, the PDP is not a private club. It is a national political institution with millions of members, constitutional organs, and an impending National Convention less than sixty (60) days away. Party activities cannot be suspended indefinitely because an impostor wishes to convert litigation into a substitute for legitimacy.
If the relevant statutory authorities and security agencies, acting within the bounds of the law, deem it fit to allow access to the National Secretariat for legitimate party activities in preparation for the National Convention, that decision stands. It is not subject to the veto power of any imposter or self-styled factional group.
*Enough of the melodrama.*
*Enough of the alarmist graphics.*
*Enough of the hollow grammar.*
You will not manufacture relevance through press theatrics. You will not secure validation through intimidation. And you will not rewrite political reality with strongly worded statements.
All objective indices (legal, political, and procedural) are firmly against your position and the collapsing coalition you represent. The party has moved on. The process has moved on. The membership has moved on.
Rather than issuing daily threats and recycling tired narratives, you should prepare to subject your claims to the only place they legitimately belong: the courts of law and the court of party opinion.
The PDP will not be held hostage by imposters that have exhausted their goodwill, squandered their credibility, and mistaken noise for authority.
The party must breathe.
The party must organize.
The party must convene.
No amount of press intimidation can stop that.
Signed,
*Concerned Stakeholders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)*
