National chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, has denied ever meeting Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State anywhere in the country.
In a statement, Special Adviser to Dr. Ayu on Media and Communications, Simon Imobo-Tswam, said that his principal never travelled to Port Harcourt and has not set eyes on Governor Wike lately.
He maintained that the photograph trending on the social media is an old one. “The story accompanying it is, therefore, false and mischievous. For the purpose of factual accuracy, that he is in no way embattled.
“The National Chairman is, rather, enjoying the New Year Break with his family.
“The general public and, especially the PDP Family, is advised to ignore the story and focus on the historic task ahead of the party next month.”
