The alleged delay by the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Iyorchia Ayu, in convening a meeting of the party’s National Executive Committee to deliberate on the report of the reconciliation panel set up by the Board of Trustees has irked members of the party’s advisory body.
This followed indications that Ayu was not ready to call a NEC meeting to deliberate on the BoT panel’s report, more than a week after it was submitted to him.
Recall that Governor Nyesom Wike and his Abia,Oyo, Enugu and Benue states counterparts -Okezie Ikpeazu, Seyi Makinde, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and Samuel Ortom, respectively, were insisting that Ayu must resign from office over the alleged imbalance in the PDP leadership.
They said that Ayu had prior to the PDP elective convention in May promised to vacate his seat in the event of the emergence of a Presidential candidate from the North.
