PDP: Join our presidential campaign – Iyorchia Ayu begs Gov Ortom

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Iyorchia Ayu has called on the Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State to join the party’s campaign train.

Ayu stress that joining the PDP would ensure victory for the party in the election.

Speaking at the PDP presidential campaign rally in Benue State, Ayu said: “I am appealing to my younger brother, Gov. Ortom to come back and join us so that we will fight to rescue Nigeria.

“Gov. Ortom has nowhere to go, his only house is the PDP and anytime that he comes, we shall be more than happy to receive him and all the PDP governors.”

Ortom, is part of the aggrieved party chieftains who are at loggerheads with the hierarchy of the party.

The Integrity Group, led by Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, have been agitating for a change of the PDP National Chairman.

They stressed that a Southerner should occupy the position of the National Chairman because the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, hails from the North.
