Ologbondiyan, said this while receiving PDP youths from the North Central in Abuja, at the weekend.
According to him, the North Central zone is set to name Ayu’s successor in line with the provisions of Section 47(6) of the PDP Constitution (2017 as Amended).
He said, “it is common knowledge that party members and stakeholders across the six geo-political zones of the country particularly the States of the North East, that includes Taraba, Gombe, Bauchi, Yobe, Adamawa and Borno States are in support of naming a successor from the North Central to replace Sen. Ayu, and the zone is already fine-tuning its processes to achieve that purpose. “
He implored PDP members to “ignore the antics of certain members of the party who have turned themselves to the Party’s Constitution and are churning out rules at their whims and caprices.
“The grundnorm for the PDP is the PDP’s Constitution (2017 as Amended) and not the desires of any individual irrespective of the position occupied by such an individual,” he added.
He urged party members to adhere to the provisions of the party’s Constitution in order to be well guided and restore the party to its lost glory.
Ologbondiyan further said, “The North Central will produce a successor to Senator Ayu, not any other zone. Any individual or group wishing to stop the implementation of Section 47 (6) of the PDP Constitution (as amended) are not seeking the good of our party.”
