Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu yesterday debunked reports of his planned defection from People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ekweremadu also underscored the need for inclusiveness as well as social and political environment, where everybody and every section count.
He was emphatic that every decision bereft of inclusiveness and consultation cannot stand.
This is contained in a statement on his Facebook page, @iamekweremadu yesterday.
Ekweremadu added: “I am presently out of the country on a pre scheduled engagement.”.
The statement said “The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, has debunked reports that he was headed to the ruling All Progressives Congress, noting that he remained a member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
“In the past 24 hours, I have been inundated with calls from friends and political associates seeking clarification on the rumours of my departure from the PDP, which has dominated the media.
“Let it be known that my path in politics is in the hands of the Almighty God, who has indeed been very faithful and gracious to me. I’m very grateful to God for this.”
