State factional chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Felix Obuah,
has warned that “the party will no longer tolerate deliberate acts of
indiscipline and disrespect by any of its members no matter the office he
occupies or the social status of such erring party member.”
Obuah’s
Special Adviser on Media, Jerry Needam, said in a statement that the warning
was coming against the backdrop of recurring “intentional and malicious
utterances and actions by certain members of the party who are bent on dragging
the name of the party to the mud.”
He said
while the leadership of the party was “making frantic efforts to make sure the
raging internal political crisis in the state is checkmated and ensure that all
aggrieved members are peacefully reconciled, certain members of the party,
notably Senator Magnus Ngei Abe, Hon Andrew Uchendu, Hon Dakuku Peterside and
some others are busy throwing spanners into the wheel of progress through
unguarded statements and divisive actions.”
But
reacting on behalf of Abe, Gomba Olaka, who is a leader of Eleme Legislative
Assembly, said if the state PDP threatens to suspend Abe for calling for the
removal of the state Commissioner of Police, Mbu, “Then the entire National
Assembly should be sacked.”
Olaka
reminded the party that the effort of Abe in bringing PDP to the path of glory
in the state is not in doubt, adding that the Senator is not just a leader of
the party in the state but also at the national level.
