The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi state over circulation of fake document purportedly conveying the suspension of some leaders in Ebonyi, including former Governor, Senator Sam Egwu and others.
National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement on Sunday, warned Umahi to steer clear of the party.
“It is indeed pitiable that such individual will descend to the level of resorting to fabrications and calendar-doctoring in desperation for political redemption”, he wrote.
The spokesman noted that the document being circulated on the suspension did not emanate from the state chapter.
He clarified that the PDP does not have a state Working Committee in Ebonyi.
He recalled that the party put in place a Caretaker Committee since the dissolution of the exco.
“We have been made aware that the fabricated document emanated from a former leader of our party in Ebonyi who left on a personal voyage to another party”, Ologbondiyan said.
Umahi had last week defected to the ruling All Progressive Party but unable to carry major PDP stakeholders in the state along.
