Fresh Demands For Ayu’s Resignation Unrealistic – Atiku’s Campaign Spokesman

Fresh Demands For Ayu’s Resignation Unrealistic – Atiku’s Campaign Spokesman

 

EKO HOT BLOG reports that Spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, Charles Aniagwu, has said that fresh demands by members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), including Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State for the resignation of the party’s national chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, have been overtaken by events and should not be subject of discussion.

 

According to him, since PDP has a law, it should be followed and not thrown away as if it is a party not governed by law.

 

EDITOR’S PICK

 

Aniagwu, who is also Delta State Commissioner for Information, while responding to questions on the meeting between Atiku and Makinde, where the governor insisted on the resignation of Ayu, even though the National Executive Committee has passed a vote of confidence on him.

 

He was also asked why Atiku, presidential candidate of PDP has not responded to the demand by governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State for the exit of Ayu, more than two weeks he had promised to act in that regard.

 

He said, “I am sure that the NEC of the party has resolved those issues particularly within the provisions of the law. And before now, a statement was issued where the presidential candidate also addressed a number of those issues.

 

“We have a law which cannot be thrown away and begin to do as if we are not a party governed by law.

 

“It must also be said that Makinde recognized him (Atiku) as the presidential candidate of the party and he said by the grace of God, the next President of Nigeria.

 

“For him to be the President of Nigeria, it shows that Makinde will work for him. That is the implication.
