I have not joined PDP - APC chieftain

A chieftain of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, Ojukaye Flagg-Amachree, has denied defecting to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Flagg-Amachree said the publication of his alleged defection was the handiwork of quack journalists.

He said: “There is investigative journalism and I expect any good editor to balance a story. For any editor to feature such important news, I expect such editor to reach the other party to ascertain the truth.

“I have called the editor to retract the story because it is not true. I have a lot to focus on and PDP is not part of it.

“Politics and life is all about expansion and contraction, and this is the moment we need to test our fate, level of loyalty and focus. 2023 is just beside the corner and I am very convinced that APC will take back the state.

“I urge my supporters and APC members to endure and be focused to take over the state.”

A local paper, Port Harcourt Weekly Watch, in its September 7 publication, reported that Ojukaye was set to defect to PDP.
