As much as I don't believe Senaor Ekweremadu intends to decamp, I think for the sake of clarity, this sort of feedback should come from the senator himself else the PDP just sound like they are trying to convince themselves

thunder74:
If he defects to APC, will he still contest as PDP's candidate against APC candidate already submitted to INEC? It will be suicidal to do that now.

kahal29:
Ekweremadu should speak for himself and not the party. This was how PDP dismissed Akpabio's own till it materialized. This news has been trending since last week yet no word from Ekweremadu. Something is fishy!!

his name will be replace with the name of the person that came second in pdp primary and he will be left empty-handed

PHILipu1:

Lol.
And the person holding APC ticket in that senatorial zone will be promise a ministerial appointment or any federal appointment and his name will be substituted for Ekweremadu.

Nogodye:
What attract Akpabio may attract him as well; The fear of EFCC!

pode:
Let's watch how this movie is going to end, one good thing about APC when they need any member from PDP they will use EFCC to collect the person

He already sent out a message

*I'M STILL IN PDP* -Sen. Ekweremadu

I am presently out of the country on a prescheduled engagement.

In the past 24 hours, I have been inundated with calls from friends and political associates seeking clarification on the rumours of my departure from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which has dominated the media.

Let it be known that my path in politics is in the hands of the Almighty God, who has indeed been very faithful and gracious to me. I’m very grateful to God for this.

My vision in politics is a system that works for everybody, a social and political environment where everybody, every section, and every tribe not only counts, but is also seen to count. As leaders, we must be mindful of this, for any system built on anything less will not endure.

I am grateful to you - members of my family, my friends, political associates, and admirers across Nigeria and beyond - for your uncommon concern. I am indeed humbled by your kind words of solidarity and support.

Please, rest assured that I am still in the PDP.

Mklanceee:

and you think he will accept with the way apc treated shehu sani after promise of automatic ticket? the guy will just tell ekweremadu to defect and wait for the ministerial slot.

The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party has debunked the rumour making the rounds that the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, is planning to leave the party.

Rather, it said there was nothing in the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress, that could attract Ekweremadu into its fold.

Instead of losing members, the PDP said aggrieved members of the APC would defect to the former ruling party soon.

There had been unconfirmed reports that Ekweremadu was planning to defect from the PDP to the APC for allegedly losing the Vice-Presidential ticket of the party to a former Governor of Anambra State, Mr Peter Obi.

Ekweremadu was believed to have positioned himself for the slot, but was said to have been disappointed when the PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, announced Obi as his running mate for the 2019 presidential election.

As part of the strategy to clinch the VP position, Ekweremadu was also believed to have rallied round delegates from the South-East to vote for Atiku at the party’s national convention held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, about two weeks ago.

To show his disaffection, Ekweremadu, whose name had already been submitted by the PDP to the Independent National Electoral Commission as a senatorial candidate from Enugu State, was said to be considering leaving the PDP for the APC.

However, the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, debunked the rumours, saying Ekweremadu “will never leave the PDP.”

Ologbondiyan said, “Why would someone like the DSP (Deputy Senate President ) consider joining the APC?

“This is a party that the highest court in the land just described as being stupid. Who will leave a rebranded party like the PDP and join such a party that has been described in such a derogatory word?

“Forget the rumour. Dr Ekweremadu is with us and will never join a party like APC that is enmeshed in eternal crisis.”

Asked if the party had met with Ekweremadu to determine if he was actually planning to leave or not, Ologbondiyan said that the “party has a way of holding meetings with its officials and others”, adding that “such meetings are not held on the pages of newspapers.”

The apc ranters won't like this. It is curious why any cocky apc/buhari's fan will suddenly be interested in PDP 'ipob/corrupt' politicians as they claim.
Anyway, #Atikunation tsunami is beginning of their panic!

#BuhariToDaura2019 irreversible.

senatordave1:

tuniski:


You see yourself? The pain you are feeling will only get worse till you are Cured Of buharideenism!
