The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, has said that calls for his resignation are coming from political amateurs who lack a basic understanding of PDP’s principles.
He affirmed that he will not succumb to calls from some quarters for him to resign his position.
The former senator maintained that he was elected by Nigerians and members of the opposition party to that exalted position based on PDP’s guidelines.
His resignation is one of the condition from the Wike’s camp because he is from the northern Nigeria where the presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar also hail from
Ayu during an interview with BBC Hausa stressed that he will not resign because some people are not comfortable with having him around.
“I was voted as PDP national chairman to serve for four years, I am not even a year old on the position,” the former lawmaker said
“Atiku’s victory at the national primaries has no nothing to do with the party’s leadership; I was the bonafide winner of the election. We acted within the dictates of the PDP constitution.
“I have not violated any rules; in fact, I am working to bring reforms to the party. I am truly not bothered by the unnecessary controversy being generated,” Ayu maintained.
