Chief Tony Anenih who is the Chairman, Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party, on Monday said former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s exit from the party was not a loss to PDP elders.
Anenih spoke with State House correspondents shortly after attending a meeting of party chiefs with President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
While the meeting held, news went had spread that Obasanjo publicly tore his PDP membership card in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, an indication that he had finally dumped the party.
Anenih who took over from Obasanjo as the BOT chairman was initially reluctant to react to the development which obviously rattled the party chiefs.
However, he mentioned that Chief Olusegun Obasanjo's exit from PDP was not a loss to the party.
"He (Obasanjo) has the right to leave any party and he has the right to join any party. He is a Nigerian. To us leaders, it is not a loss, and we will not miss him." Anenih told reporters.
However, the party’s National Chairman, Alhaji Adamu Muazu, was evasive when reporters attempted to get his reaction.
Muazu initially pretended not to hear reporters when they approached him.
