In response to rumours that he met with Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State today in Port-Harcourt, the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Dr Iyorchia Ayu, has branded the claims as false.
Ayu said he didn’t meet with the Governor either in Port Harcourt or any place in Nigeria today while refuting the claims.
The PDP Chairman who spoke through his Special Adviser on Media and Communications, Simon Imobo-Tswam, in Abuja, on Wednesday, said the speculation was the handiwork of mischief makers.
Imobo Tswam said, “Dr Ayu states clearly that:1. He never travelled to Port Harcourt and 2. He has not set eyes on Gov. Wike lately.
“The photograph trending on social media is an old one. The story accompanying it is, therefore, false and mischievous.
“He also adds, for the purpose of factual accuracy, that he is in no way embattled.
“The National Chairman is, rather, enjoying the New Year Break with his family.
“The general public and, especially the PDP Family, is advised to ignore the story and focus on the historic task ahead of the party next month.”
