PDP clarifies on suspension of national vice chairman, Odefa
The Peoples Democratic Party has clarified on the purported suspension of the South east National vice chairman of the party, Chief Ali Odefa from his ward.
In a statement issued by the media director of the party in the zone, Richard Nwafor, the PDP noted that the acclaimed ward executives were hired by opposition party to cause disaffection and destabilise the party in the state.
According to the media director: “our attention has been drawn to a media statement attributed to some faceless individuals, allegedly ward executives of our party in Onicha Local Government Area of Ebonyi State”.
“These individuals, having failed in their attempts to hijack the structure of our party for selfish political interests, resort to causing confusion and disaffection in the party”.
“Notwithstanding, we urge members of our great party and the general public to disregard the purported suspension High Chief Dr. Ali Odefa from the party as no such thing happened. We categorically state that High Chief Dr. Ali Odefa remains undeterred and focused in the discharge of his functions”.
He noted that no amount of distraction would derail the Southeast National vice chairman from his unwavering efforts to reposition the party in the state and zone.
“After a federal high court in Abakaliki dissolved the constituted Caretaker Committee (CTC) members in the state some months ago, the Zonal Working Committee of our party in the southeast took leadership to oversee the activities of the People’s Democratic Party in Ebonyi State. No distractions will derail the National Vice Chairman’s (Odefa) unwavering efforts to reposition the party in the state and southeast”, the PDP said.
The party advised the general public to disregard falsehood spread and further urged members, supporters, and democracy lovers not to yield to blackmail from individuals whose membership of the party cannot be verified in the state.
