The member representing Andoni State constituency in the Rivers State House of Assembly and Chief whip of the Assembly, Hon. Ikunyi-Owaji Ibani and former chairman of Andoni Local Government Council, Apostle Felix Fyneface Ayayi have assured the people of Andoni Local Government Area that the Peoples Democratic Party is intact in the LGA, saying that PDP is not leaving any stone unturned in winning all elections in the area.
The duo are reacting to the claims of the former chairman of the party, Hon. Ere Victor, who defected to APC that he moved to APC with the entire PDP members.
It would be recalled that Hon. Victor made his declaration for APC penultimate Monday in the Obolo Hall at Ngo, headquarters of Andoni local government.
The Rivers Assembly Chief Whip, Ibani gave the assurance while addressing a mammoth crowd of PDP stakeholders in a meeting held recently in Port Harcourt, noting that without the council support the PDP is capable of winning all its elections in the area, hence enjoined the stalwarts to remain faithful.
In a separate chat with The Newswriter the former chairman, Apostle Ayayi who corroborated the lawmaker’s statement also maintained that PDP’s victory in Andoni is premised on the growing status, experiences and popularity of the party affirming that the exit of few members to the All Progressives Congress (APC) does not in anyway affect the PDP.
Ayayi who restated PDP’s commitment to the Andoni people advised the people to ignore the APC noting that they have no basis and structure to contain the PDP in the area.
The Newswriter is properly informed that the Peoples Democratic Party will soon embark on the sensitization of its members and supporters on the programmes of the party and other national issues. ###
