Wike, others were children when we formed PDP – Ayu
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare on Whatsapp

National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senator Iyiocha Ayu has insisted that the call for his resignation was uncalled for.

Ayu in an interview on the Hausa service of BBC on Wednesday described Rivers Governor, Nyesom Wike and members of the Governor’s camp calling for his resignation as mere noisemakers and children, who were not available when he and other party chieftains laboured to form the party.

He opined that the presidential candidacy of Atiku Abubakar does not in any way affect his position as the PDP National Chairman stressing that even if Atiku had come from Benue State, it would not have justified the call for his resignation.

He said, “I stood for election and I won the election and I am fixing the party, I have not stolen anything, I have not committed any offence, we will not allow one person to come and spoil the party for us with frivolous calls and conditions.

“I was elected as PDP chairman for a four-year term and I’m not up to one year, so the call for my resignation is uncalled for. The election of Abubakar Atiku as the PDP presidential candidate cannot affect my election as national chairman, even if the candidate is from Benue state, I stood for election and I was voted for by Nigerians”.

When asked in specific terms about the conditions of Wike’s camp’s call for his resignation among other conditions, he said: “All that he is doing does not affect me because I know I am fixing the party, I am doing my work diligently, I have not committed any offence.

”I have not stolen any money, so there is no reason for my resignation, when we started the PDP all those ones were children, they were not there, we will not allow one person to become a spoiler, this is our country, so all that is expected of us is to fix the country, provide security and dividends of democracy when we take over power in 2023.”
