The Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), Imo State Chapter, has reacted to the rumour making rounds in recent times, that , Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha and some other PDP members are making plans to decamp to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ogubundu Nwadike, the PDP state Publicity Secretary, has debunked the news stating that it is fake.

He made this known in a press release on 2 December titled, “Purported Defection of Ihedioha, Others to APC, Fake News, Sponsored by Failed Politicians”,

It Reads:
The attention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Imo State has been drawn to a mischievous, poorly scripted story, attributed to Daily Trust newspaper as well as other social media news platforms, alleging plans by His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha, CON and some notable leaders of our great party to decamp to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ordinarily, we would not dignify such inanity with an official response, but to ensure that nobody is held in doubt about the falsehood inherent in the said story. We not only declare unequivocally that Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha has no plans to leave our dear party, we authoritatively add that he and other leaders of our party in the state have no reason to contemplate such action.

It is very evident that Rt. Hon. Ihedioha, a life member of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of our party, is a consequential stakeholder and leader whose loyalty and commitment to the PDP since its formation, has never been called to question. His integrity quotient has been tested and proven. It may be necessary to remind that it was via PDP that he has served our country in various high offices, including – Chief Whip, Deputy Speaker and Speaker of the House of Representatives and only recently, elected Governor of Imo State overwhelmingly by the people of Imo State.

However, we are not oblivious of the clandestine efforts by fifth columnists who have perpetually lost sleep over the goodwill, respect and massive support Rt. Hon. Ihedioha enjoy in the state and across the country. The good news is that the sponsors of the joke, are not unknown to Imolites and Nigerians. Without any need to yet publish their identities, we will only assure them that their pettiness is inconsequential.

We wish to assure our teeming members, supporters, Imolites and Nigerians in general and indeed reiterate that there is no iota of truth that our members are leaving to another party. Only recently, Hon. Pascal Okolie, member of the Imo State House of Assembly representing Orlu State Constituency announced his defection and his followers from the ruling APC to our party and we are expecting more to follow soon.
