Ayu Clears Air On Probe of PDP *Says, I Work With Facts

The in-coming National Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, has spoken on the rumored probe of the past administrations of the party.

A statement from Dr. Iyorchia Ayu Media Office, Abuja, says it has become necessary to properly situate the statements credited to the in-coming National Chairman within a factual context, insisting that miscommunication is being propagated.

The statement further reads: “The attention of the Media Office of the incoming National Chairman of the PDP, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, has been drawn to numerous headlines in the dailies.

“They reported Dr. Ayu as saying the incoming National Working Committee (NWC) of the party will probe past administrations of the party.

“Ayu maintains what he said during the presentation of the communique to the media that: ‘He has not seen the books of the party or received any handover notes, and so he cannot make any authoritative comment on any allegation.

“Dr. Ayu works with facts, not hearsay. The public should ignore any report to the contrary.”
