The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Ondo State Chapter, has thrown its weight behind the decision of the National Executive Council of the party which passed a vote of confidence in the National Chairman of the party, Senator Iyorchia Ayu.
The party said what is paramount to the leaders of the party in the state is the victory at the forthcoming general elections.
The National Executive Council of the Peoples Democratic Party had recently passed a vote of confidence in the National Chairman of the party, Senator Iyorthe chia Ayu.
There have been calls by some members of the party, including the Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde that Ayu should step down as the chairman of the PDP to allow someone from the south to occupy the position.
In a statement by the State Publicity Secretary of the party, Kennedy Ikantu Peretei, said “Ondo State PDP aligns itself completely with the 97th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting Resolutions which passed a vote of confidence on Senator Iyorchia Ayu as National Chairman and the National Working Committee (NWC) of our great party.”
Peretei noted that since the coming of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2015, Nigeria has been on a free fall.
According to him, “We moved from the biggest economy in Africa to the World capital of poverty. As a nation, we are struggling for space for a ranking in failed states with Afghanistan and Syria under President Muhammadu Buhari.
“Our party is determined to end the misrule of APC, rescue and redirect our country on the path of recovery and prosperity. Against this background, Ondo State PDP aligns itself completely with the 97th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting Resolutions which passed a vote of confidence on Senator Iyorchia Ayu as National Chairman and the National Working Committee (NWC) of our great party.
