I’m still in PDP, says Alaibe
A former Managing Director of Niger Delta Development Commission , Chief Timi Alaibe, has distanced himself from reports that he defected to the Alliance for Democracy following his failure to clinch the governorship ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party ahead of the November 16 election in Bayelsa State.
Alaibe, in a statement by his campaign organisation and signed by the Administrative Secretary, Prof. Seiyefa Brisibe, said no decision had been taken on his next move. “We thank our supporters and the good people of Bayelsa State for their unprecedented support, evidenced by dead silence in the State on Wednesday September 4, 2019, peaceful conduct and patience since the unacceptable election result was announced last week.“We apologise for the vacuum created by our silence which has given rise to various speculations planted in the media by those who masterminded the injustice in order to confuse the people.
“As it is traditional in matters of this kind, we needed to carry out due consultation across board with our supporters; particularly the stakeholders—including our vibrant youth and women—before taking any step or embarking on any decision in search of redress or alternatives. We are almost at the end of the necessary consultations.
