Hundreds of members of the Imo state Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Monday formed a New- PDP with Fabian Ihekweme as the state Chairman.
The N-PDP, was formed in Owerri, capital of Imo state, at Villa Garden Hotel. The N-PDP has as Deputy chairman, Jerry Ogoke, Secretary, Ifeanyi Oguzie, while Johnbosco Ben and Christigonus Okoro as spokesperson and Organizing Secretary respectively.The legal adviser was given to Uche Igbokwe.
They also gave the National Working Committee, NWC, of PDP, on or before 29th of November 2018, to resolve all the issues or face mass exodus of defection of members of the PDP to opponent camp. Giving reasons for the emergence of the N-PDP, Ihekweme said:
“How can it be explained that a major political party like the PDP could not return a single female gender out of a total of 42 elective positions that were offered to the party members and even the few women that emerged were brazenly removed at Abuja. “Again to add pepper to injury, some of the validly elected aspirants in the field that contested for House of Assembly and House of Representatives were fraudulently replaced at the Wadata House without recourse to due process.”
Ihekweme described the activities prior to the governorship primaries of the party that,
“What we saw as loyal party members was in fact a subterranean move by one man parading himself as both a leader and agent of the NWC.” “The whole arrangement was aimed at shortchanging the rest of us, into rubber stamping his own emergence as the legitimate winner of the grossly manipulated and flawed process.”
