July 5, 2015 – The Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) has said that Kogi State Governor, Mr, Idris Wada was not kept waiting at the PDP headquarters on Thursday in Abuja contrary to media reports.
“This is totally false and mischievous. The fact is that Governor Wada arrived the national secretariat some minutes ahead of the Acting National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus and was with members of the National Working Committee (NWC) before the arrival of the Acting National Chairman.
“Soon after, the governor and his entourage met with the Acting National Chairman and had very useful discussions. The governor threw more light on the congresses held in his state and the composition of the state local organizing committee. The National Working Committee, at the end of the meeting resolved to look into the issues raised and take appropriate decision on them”, the PDP said.
In a statement, Publicity Secretary of the party, Chief Olisa Metuh National said the National Working Committee holds Governor Idris Wada in very high esteem as the leader of the party in Kogi state.
He described Wada as a humble and brilliant administrator who has continued to discharge his duties with great candor and commitment.
“However, the National Working Committee restates for emphasis that it is strictly focused on ensuring a transparent and all-inclusive process that would guarantee a level playing ground for all members of the party in the state in line with the PDP constitution”, it said and it NWC urges the media to ensure that they always crosscheck their facts before going to press.
