The Alhaji Kawu Baraje-led New Peoples Democratic Party has denied the alleged resignation of Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger State from the breakaway faction.
The splinter PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, described the publication as “a tissue of lies of the reporter and those behind it”.
Eze said in a statement on Tuesday: “It may interest you to note that the first thing we did this morning when we read the report was to contact H.E. Gov. Babangida Aliyu of Niger State through our National Chairman, Alhaji Aubakar Kawu Baraje, and according to our Chairman, the Governor vehemently denied and refuted such an absurd and false report and assured us that he will be the last person to leave the G7 Governors, particularly now that our struggle to reposition PDP is about to yield the desired result.”
The nPDP spokesman noted that the report was “one of those evil machinations by the failed politicians on the side of Tukur’s faction to cause disunity in a group that God in answer to the prayers of Nigerians brought to restore hope back to our dying democracy. In this regard, we will like to assure Nigerians that this is a fight we shall see to its logical end not minding all the evil plots against us as a group.
“Be assured that we are very selective of who becomes our member, this is to ensure that we have very patriotic Nigerians that are very desirous of building a new Nigeria envisaged by the founding fathers of our country particularly our great party.”
