Anyone who believes I will leave PDP is sleeping – Ebonyi governor, Umahi

Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi, has once again reaffirmed his loyalty to the Peoples Democratic Party.

He said in spite of the crisis currently rocking the party at the national level, he still remained a committed member of the former ruling party.

Umahi made the remark on Sunday during a Christmas ‘Get-Together’ he organised for the State Working Committee of the PDP, including its local and zonal committee members.

According to him, the ongoing leadership challenges tearing the party apart would not lead to its collapse as it would soon fizzle out with the commitment of its dedicated members.

“Anybody who believes that I would leave PDP for the All Progressives Congress or any other party is sleeping and should be woken from sleep.

“APC and other parties cannot win election in this state because PDP has performed marvelously and cannot be arm-twisted,’’ he said.

Last week, Umahi had noted that anybody having such thoughts about defection “is just dreaming”, because he remained one of the strongest pillars holding the PDP.
