I have no plans to leave PDP – Amaechi

Rotimi Amaechi

Contrary to the media speculation that Governor, Rotimi Amaechi of Rivesr State was leaving the Peoples Democratic Party following his suspension, the governor has said he has no intention to leave the acclaimed largest party in Africa for whatsoever reason..

The embattled governor, who spoke in a communiqué by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. David Iyofor, on Thursday, explained that contrary to the comments by the State Publicity Secretary of the Action Congress of Nigeria, Mr. Jerry Needam, Amechi remained an active member of the PDP.

Amaechi debunked the claims that he was making plans to join the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, describing it as outright lies and a figment of the imagination of the opposition party’s spokesman.

Needam had, in a statement in Port Harcourt, said the ACN had nominated two members of the party in the state to discuss on the possibility of accepting Amaechi as a member.

However, the governor maintained that he was already fighting his suspension from the PDP in court, stressing that he had never met or discussed with anybody on his plans to leave the ruling party for the ACN.
