A founding member of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Iwuanyanwu has dismissed reports linking him to a newly formed political party known as Advance Peoples’ Democratic Alliance (APDA). Iwuanyanwu disclosed this in a press statement he personally signed and issued to newsmen on Thursday.
According to him, PDP will bounce back and as such there was no need to dump the party for any other one.
The statement reads: “I Chief Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Iwuanyanwu, member PDP Board of Trustee, member PDP National Caucus representing South East and member PDP National Executive committee.
“I have recently observed some members of PDP decamping to other parties including some new parties. I have even read newspaper publication alleging that I have left PDP for one of the new parties.
“I want to state categorically that I have never attended any meeting for the formation of any new party nor joined any new party.
“For the avoidance of any doubt, I want to inform my many supporters and well-wishers that I am still a member of the Peoples’ Democratic Party.
“The PDP is a brand name, I believe in; in spite of mistakes and misfortunes of the past, PDP will re-bounce back to power and give Nigerians honest and credible leadership.”
