National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, Iyorchia Ayu has said that he will not resign his position despite calls for him to do so.
Ayu in a chat with BBC Hausa said those calling for his resignation were children. He said such persons were not around when they formed the party.
According to him, he was voted as chairman of the party for a four-year tenure and he is yet to complete one year.
He stated that the victory of Atiku Abubakar does not affect his position, as he won the election based on the party’s constitution.
Ayu, also said that they will not allow any individual no matter how highly placed to destabilize the party.
Part of his statement reads,
When we started PDP, these children were not around. They are children who do not know why we formed the party. We will not allow any individual to destabilise our party.
I was voted as PDP Chairman for a four-year tenure and I’m yet to complete a year. Atiku’s victory doesn’t affect the chairman’s position. I won my election based on our party’s constitution.
I didn’t commit any offence. I’m only reforming the party, so I’m not bothered with all the noises. I know I’m doing my work and I didn’t steal any money, so I see no reason for all these talks.
