The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) says it will not be distracted by those who have allowed themselves to be
used by forces from another political party.
Describing the emergence of a new
faction as comical, the opposition party said it would remain unperturbed.
Earlier on Wednesday, a group led
by one Emmanuel Obi-Nwosu, opened its own national secretariat in Asokoro area
of Abuja.
At its inaugural press
conference, the group identified as Fresh PDP vowed to do everything within its
powers to reclaim the leadership of PDP.
But Kola Ologbodiyan, spokesman
of the PDP, said the Obi-Nwosu group was only making outlandish claims in the
media.
Ologbondiyan hailed ongoing
reconciliatory efforts of Seriake Dickson, governor of Bayelsa state and head
of the party’s peace committee.
The spokesman said the party is
satisfied with responses from those approached for reconciliation.
We are happy with the efforts of
the Governor Seriake Dickson-led Reconciliation Committee as well as the
responses from all the respectable and responsible leaders of our party in that
regard,” he said.
“We will however not be
responsible or respond to any person or groups of individuals who decide to
allow themselves to be used by forces from another political party in a
laughable and childish attempt to distract us.
“PDP under the Prince Uche
Secondus national leadership will continue to focus on repositioning our great
party to be the formidable opposition that will guarantee checks and balances
in our polity and ultimately regain power in 2019.”
