Ayu resists calls for resignation, as PDP NEC holds crucial meeting
The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, has put up resistance to calls for his resignation after Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State lost the PDP presidential ticket at the party’s National Assembly and subsequently lost the vice presidential slot to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta for the 2023 general elections.
Ayu in an interview with BBC Hausa, declared: “I was voted as PDP national chairman to serve for four years. I am not even a year old on the position.
“Atiku’s victory at the national primaries has no nothing to do with the party’s leadership; I was the bonafide winner of the election. We acted within the dictates of the PDP constitution.
“I have not violated any rules; in fact, I am working to bring reforms to the party. I am truly not bothered by the unnecessary controversy being generated.”
