Cross Carpeting: Gov Umahi Sets To Leave PDP by nairapark: 3:20pm On Nov 11, 2020 |
The Peoples Democratic Party leaders have been informed that one of its member will be leaving the party to join the ruling All Progressives Congress. The cross carpeting member, who is the Governor of Ebonyi State, Dave Umahi, said his decision is for the South-East interest in the coming 2023 elections. Umahi, informing the members of the National Working Committee of the PDP of its decision, that joining the APC was irreversible. According to report, the committee, led by its National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus tried convincing the Governor but went void. In the meeting with Umahi were the National Chairman, Deputy National Secretary, Agbo Emmanuel; National Organising Secretary, Austin Akobondu; Financial Secretary, Abdullahi Maibasira; National Women Leader, Mariya Waziri and Senator Sulieman Nazif. Umahi received the delegates at the Ebonyi Governor’s Lodge in Abuja, in which the PDP delegation urged the governor against leaving the party but was unconvinced. According to a source, he said, “I think his (governor’s) mind was made up. We told him there was no need for him to abandon the party that had made him a deputy governor, state chairman of the party, two-time governor and all that. But he refused. “He wanted us to unilaterally zone the office of the Presidency to his area. We cannot do that. Parties are not run that way. He told us he was leaving. That is what we got from him.’’ https://www.nairapark.com/news/1605086066/cross-carpeting-gov-umahi-sets-leave-pdp ![]() |
