PDP govs, BoT abandon Secondus; caucus warns secretariat no-go area
As the PDP national executives, and its BoT have yet to speak on the court decision that suspends the party national chairman Uche Secondus, torrents of humiliation and warning have bee pouring in.
It was the media aide to Rivers Gov Nyesom Wike who first bombarded media houses with the press release of the suspension the night of August 23.
Now another group is rubbing it in as the national chairman got a warning to keep off the Wadata House in Abuja.
National Coordinator of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Youth Frontier, Comrade Austin Okai, just hammered it again–that Secondus should cease parading himself as chairman, the injunction the embattled politician already soaked in.
“It is in the interest of Prince Uche Secondus to understand that the judgement of the court is binding on everyone except a superior court upturns it.
“Therefore, he must, in his own interest, stay away from the party’s national secretariat and desist from parading himself as the National Chairman in line with the court order,” Okai said in a press statement August 24.
He claimed the PDP is a party of law and order that believes strongly in the rule of law.
“Secondus must understand this.”
The message should even be clearer as the PDP governors caucus has yet to react to the development, knowing fully well the force behind the storm rocking the party is one of them, Wike.
In solidarity with the governor, almost all the NWC executives of the party resigned two weeks ago, stating they would not work with Secondus again following unresolved allegations of corruption and weak leadership.
