PDP has no regard for Peter Obi – Okupe

Former presidential spokesperson Doyin Okupe says the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has no regard for former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi.

In a statement, he accused some forces within the party of trying to remove the elected executive in Obi’s home state.

“It is a matter for great regret that despite HE Peter Obi’s gentlemanly civil disposition and unwavering commitment to pdp as a party, some officials in the National secretariat of the party  do not accord him the respect due to him as the leader of the party in Anambra state.
Recently a free and fair national delegates elections were conducted in the state and the results verified by INEC officials. Surprisingly some people within the state are trying to collude with certain elements within the National secretariat to manipulate these results in order to undermine the political base of Peter Obi in Anambra.

“We plead earnestly with the respected leadership of this great party to Intervene and ensure that things are done properly and rightly and in accordance with our party’s constitution,” Okupe wrote.
