I Can Vouch For Ayu’s Capability To Lead PDP To Victory Next Year – Ortom

Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has distanced himself from those calling for the removal of Iyorchia Ayu as the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party.

He recently had his say via a press statement to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he has complete confidence in Ayu’s ability to lead the party to victory in next year’s general election, and he hopes he gets the opportunity to do just that.

Ortom added that he can vouch for the integrity and capacity of Dr Iyorchia Ayu to lead and rebuild the PDP.

It read, “Governor Ortom vouched for the integrity and capacity of Dr Iyorchia Ayu to lead and rebuild the PDP to victory and rescue Nigeria from the misrule of the APC maladministration. That is why Ayu was returned unopposed by the northern caucus of the party and got elected as the national chairman of the PDP at the party’s convention.”

“Where was Jemgbagh Development Association, when Governor Ortom galvanised support from across the leaders of the party to make Dr. Ayu PDP’s National Chairman? What was their contribution to that project that they now want to use clannish stance to blackmail the governor?”

“This amorphous and emergency Jemgbagh Development Association, Abuja, which has never been heard of before, is now masquerading as the voice of Jemgbagh to embark on campaign of calumny against Governor Ortom, who has worked selflessly for the people of Benue State.”
