Mr Uche Secondus, former National Chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday said he has no intention of withdrawing the
case challenging his removal from court.
Recall that a Rivers State High Court had restrained
Secondus from exercising the functions of the National Chairman of the PDP.
The judge, Justice O. Gbasam who gave the order, also
approved the suspension of Secondus as a member of the party pending the
hearing and determination of motion on notice for interlocutory injunction.
Secondus had also vowed to defend himself in court if
summoned.
However, a statement by Secondus’s Media Adviser, Mr Ike
Abonyi, on Monday, said that he was in court to seek for justice, as well as
save the party from manipulations.
“The attention of the media office of Secondus has been
drawn to an unsubstantiated report claiming that he is under pressure to
withdraw his case against the party from court.
“The truth which the said news did not state is that
Secondus is not in court against the party, but was dragged to court by persons
bent on hijacking the soul of the party.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the media office wishes to
restate that Secondus is really under pressure for justice and will seek it
anywhere to save the party from destruction,” he said.
Abonyi said that the party leaders were aware of the
situation and knew what to do to rectify the problem.
“Nothing short of justice will save PDP from the current
situation.
“For avoidance of doubt, the justice Secondus is seeking is
as enshrined in the party’s constitution which is supreme.
“The constitution states clearly how a national chairman and
any national officer can be sanctioned even where there is a known breach, talk
less of where there is none,” he said.
