Ibrahim Abdullahi Deputy National Publicity Secretary, PDP, writes:” I am directed by the Acting National Chairman of the PDP, HE Amb Umar Iliya Damagun, to REFUTE a misleading statement issued by the National Publicity Secretary, Hon Debo Ologunagba shortly after Supreme Court delivered judgement in the case of Samuel Anyanwu Vs. Emmanuel Aniagu on Friday, March 21, 2025.

For the avoidance of doubt, the statement of Debo Olagunagba does not reflect the position of the PDP and the NWC respectively.

The public should please disregard the falsehood. It is pertinent to inform the public that at no time did the Supreme Court recognize Hon Udeh Okoye as National Secretary, but only described him as an “impostor” while the appellant, Emmanuel Aniagu as a “meddlesome Interloper” respectively.

The NWC hereby distances itself from the CALCULATED FALSEHOOD aimed at achieving a predetermined objective, and to however, deceitfully mislead the public and PDP members .

It is worrisome that the National Publicity Secretary has, of late embarked on a frolic of his own by taking EXTREME and CONTRADICTORY opinions against the collective resolve of the NWC to undermine its authority.

The public should please disregard the falsehood. It is pertinent to inform the public that at no time did the Supreme Court recognize Hon Udeh Okoye as National Secretary, but only described him as an “impostor”

Members of the public, especially the PDP family, are hereby enjoined to DISREGARD and DISCARD the publication, which is merely the figment of the NPS’s imagination.

So far, the National Working Committee of our party cannot disregard or make the gist of the judgment of the highest court in the land, as it will continue to uphold the decision of the court.”

A founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party and Board of Trustees member, Adamu Waziri, has resigned from the party and joined the African Democratic Congress.

Waziri announced his decision on Monday at his Dogo Tebo Ward in Potiskum, Yobe State.

He said the move was in line with the PDP constitution, which requires formal resignation at the ward level.

Explaining his decision, Waziri said the PDP no longer reflects the values of a credible opposition.

“I was a member of PDP, and due to the exigencies of the moment and in the interest of the nation, I have decided to resign,” he said.

He urged his followers to join him in supporting a new political movement that can strengthen democracy and ensure better governance.

Waziri described the decision as difficult but necessary, saying the current leadership of the PDP has lost its way.

In response, PDP Ward Chairman Malam Muhammad Bomai, who represented the local leadership, accepted Waziri’s resignation with regret, calling him a pillar of the party.

“Waziri has been an institution within the PDP, and we will feel his absence deeply,” he said.

Bomai also announced his resignation from the PDP and immediate defection to ADC, saying he shares Waziri’s vision for a better Nigeria.

“I think it’s ridiculous to start a third party,” said Trump.

“It’s always been a two-party system and I think starting a third party just adds to the confusion.

“After teasing the idea for weeks, Musk posted on X over the weekend that he had set up the America Party to challenge the Republican and Democratic “Uniparty”.

Trump and Musk were formerly close allies, with the Tesla boss leading the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), which is tasked with helping to cut federal spending.

Peter Obi, who ran as the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in 2023, has confirmed he will contest for president again in 2027, firmly dismissing suggestions he might serve as someone else’s running mate.

The former Anambra State Governor announced this during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics programme, which aired on Sunday.

“I’m going to contest for the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and I believe I am qualified for it,” Obi said.

His declaration ends speculation that he might team up with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party as a running mate.

When asked about these rumours, Obi was clear in his response: “This is not in play; nobody has ever discussed that. People assume so many things.

Nobody has ever discussed with me whether I will be A or B or C.” Obi reaffirmed his commitment to the Labour Party, describing himself as a “vibrant member” of the party that gave him his political platform in 2023.
