South West PDP passes vote of confidence on Ayu

 The state chapters of the PDP, in Ondo, Osun, Ogun, Ekiti and Lagos, have dissociated their selves from calls for the resignation of Dr Iyorchia Ayu, as the party National Chairman.

The Publicity secretaries in the state said this in a statement issued by them after a meeting held in Lagos, this saturday.

The statement was signed by Hakeem Amode, Lagos, Kennedy Peretei, Ondo, Hon. Raphael ‘Wumi Adeyanju, Ekiti and Bankole Akinloye, Ogun State.

The statement reads ” On behalf of the leadership of the PDP State Chapters in Ondo, Osun, Ogun, Ekiti and Lagos state we the Publicity Secretaries in these states respectively dissociate our selves from  calls for the resignation of Dr Iyorchia Ayu as PDP National Chairman.

“We wish to affirm our faithfulness to the PDP constitution which clearly stipulates the procedure for leadership election and removal. As the only political party that has not changed its name or logo since its establishment in 1998, the party cannot afford to appear unserious.

“We do not see any justification for the resignation of our National Chairman, especially at this very critical stage of preparation for elections.
