It said there is no cause for any one of them to contemplate leaving the ruling party for the APC that is yet to have an operable structure.<\/p>\n<p>PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh in a statement yesterday said the fact that the PDP took the high moral ground of decency to congratulate the opposition on the formation of the APC does not cover the new party&#8217;s inadequacies and its destiny to fall apart in no time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNobody leaves a moving train to join an inoperable one. That the PDP took the high moral ground of decency that we are known for, to congratulate the opposition parties on the formation of their new party does not cover its inherent inadequacies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo there is no PDP governor that will leave a stable and national party such as the PDP to join the APC. All our governors are working with the National Chairman and the National Working Committee and the President and there is no reason for anyone of them to contemplate leaving PDP for APC\u201d, the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>The PDP also dismissed claims by the opposition that there is disunity in its ranks. Instead, the statement said PDP governors have been paying courtesy calls on the leadership of the party and have been making public statements that they are with the party leadership and the President in his transformation agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose who continue to cast aspersions on the PDP and to suggest that there is crisis in the party are completely deluded. For the avoidance of doubt, there is no crisis in the PDP. We are all working together. The governors have been paying courtesy visits to the National Chairman and the National Working Committee and they are working with the President on the transformation agenda. \u201d, the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>Stating that the opposition elements will soon realize that they are merely chasing shadows, the PDP said it enjoys an overwhelming support from the people and will win more states in the 2015 elections in spite of the APC.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>****\u00a0 Debunks Claim Of Governors Defection.
