PDP Will Collapse If I Decamp To APC – Gov Umahi - Mhiz Rebecca - 12-10-2016
Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi has claimed that if he
defects from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All
Progressives Congress, APC, the party would collapse.
Umahi
noted
that
anybody
having
such
thoughts about his defection “is just dreaming”, because
he remained one of the strong pillars holding the PDP.
Speaking through the State Commissioner for Information
and Orientation, Senator Emmanuel Onwe, the governor
maintained that the media speculations that was planning
to pitch his tent with the ruling party was the figment of
the imagination of rumour mongers.
Onwe said, “There have been speculations as to whether
the Governor of Ebonyi State is moving to the APC or
whether he is remaining in PDP, and who is going with
him and who is not going with him.
“I want to address this matter hopefully once and for all,
for all Nigerians to understand that Governor Umahi is
one of the centre pillars of the PDP. And I say that with a
very deep conviction from my soul.
“This is a party on whose platform he has been the state
Chairman for four years, a party on whose platform he
was the deputy governor for four years and now,
governor hopefully for eight years.
“And anyone speculating about his commitment or his
strength, or his role within the party or any doubt at all
about whether he is remaining or decamping, is just
dreaming.”
