The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said on Thursday the caretaker committee led by Dr. Tony Aziegbemi remains the leader of the party in Edo State.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday in Abuja.
He said the attention of the PDP national leadership had been drawn to activities of certain individuals parading themselves as the party’s executives in Edo Chapter of the PDP.
The spokesman said: “The PDP states in clear terms that the Edo State Chapter is presently being run by a 10-member Caretaker Committee with Aziegbemi as Chairman and Henry Tenebe as Secretary.”
Ologunagba said that the caretaker committee was duly appointed by the NWC.
He listed the members of the committee to include Harrison Omagbon, Fidel Igenegbale, Chris Nehikhare, Tony Anenih Jnr., Bishop Anthony Okosun, Segun Saiki, Adezat Ibrahim, and Augustine Edosomwan.
“The PDP cautions that any other persons illegally parading themselves as the PDP executive in Edo State will be treated as impostors as the Party has not elected a new Exco for the Edo State Chapter.
“Moreover the arty will not hesitate to take decisive disciplinary action against any person acting in defiance of the clear provisions of the Constitution of the PDP (as amended in 2017),’’ he added.
