Already, the party has barred and warned all personal aides of members of the National Working Committee and all unauthorised persons to desist from making comments on the administration of the party.
Apart from barring unauthorised statements, the national chairman was said to have concluded plans to sack some aides, for embarrassing and misrepresenting the party and his office.
In a statement signed by the national publicity secretary of the party, Chief Olisah Metuh, the PDP disowned attacks launched on some governors of the party by the political adviser to the party chairman, Senator Umar Gada, reaffirming that the party was not at a loggerheads with its governors.
Senator Gada had told four selected journalists in Abuja that some governors were seeking the removal of the party chairman for their selfish interest and because of the chairman’s undiluted loyality to President Goodluck Jonathan.
The party however said the comments credited to Gada “does not in any way represent the true state of affairs in the party” and that the aide’s statement does not represent the position of the Chairman and the party.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the NWC enjoys a harmonious relationship with our governors, Board of Trustee members, elders of the party and other key stakeholders with the National Chairman piloting all in supporting President Goodluck Jonathan to deliver the Transformation Agenda for the good of all Nigerians”, the statement said.
The NWC said it will “continue to uphold the manifesto and constitution of the party in the overall interest of all Nigerians in line with the principles of service, justice and equity”, adding that “in this regard, we remain on the same page with our governors and all our elected and appointed officials.”
