“We have evidence that Metuh worked against Jonathan’s re-election” – PDP workers

The Peoples Democratic Party Staff Welfare Association has accused Olisa Metuh, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, of working against the re-election bid of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

The disgruntled workers claimed that Metuh decided to work against Jonathan because he lost the position of the Director of Publicity of the Presidential Campaign to Femi Fani-Kayode.

They made this known on Saturday, August 1, in a statement released by the chairman of their association, Ngozi Nze and secretary, Dan Ochu-Baiye in Abuja.

The statement read in part: “We have incontrovertible evidence that the man who is PDP Publicity Secretary worked assiduously against the presidential candidate of the PDP, former President Goodluck Jonathan in the last election in order to requite the ex-President for rejecting him as Director of Publicity of the Presidential Campaign which was given to Mr.Femi Fani-Kayode, a development which came after Metuh had squandered a whooping sum of N450m media fund earlier approved for the office of PDP Publicity Secretary by Jonathan.”

Furthermore, the workers association described as a blackmail, the allegation by Metuh that the staff members were being sponsored by the All Progressives Congress.

The workers said that such a weak shot from a “mortally crippled arsenal of witch-hunt is incapable of breaking the resolve of the staff to expose the thieving band in the NWC and restore the core vision of the party.”

“We are not surprised that the allegation will become the most fashionable means of covering tracks,” the statement said.

“We therefore place on record that the majority of the establishment staff of the PDP are not just unrepentant members of the party who have spent over 16 years in service; who have assimilated the PDP ethos as a way of political life but are also the repository of the party’s institutional memory whose spirit can hardly succumb to the ephemerality of power loss.”
