The BOT says it is not only morally wrong for Mr Anyanwu to hold on to his position as national secretary and at the same time the party’s governorship candidate in Imo, but it is also against its constitutional provisions.
The Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party says the candidate of the party in the 11 November governorship election in Imo State, Samuel Anyanwu, cannot remain as the party’s national secretary while contesting for the governorship seat.
He called on the National Working Committee of the party to ask Mr Anyanwu to resign as the national secretary before the Imo gubernatorial election scheduled to hold on 11 November. Mr Ologunagba said the group’s claim was mischievous, insisting that “the NWC “did not at any time relieve or contemplate relieving Mr Anyanwu of his position.”
“The usual practice is for him to have resigned earlier than now. However, in the wisdom of the NWC, he was allowed to continue in office till now.
