Press Statement:The attention of the PDP National Chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, has been drawn to mischievous and senseless posts on the social media.
The posts, purporting to be from the PDP national chairman, state that Ayu says he cannot talk to a man who is childless.
Another post, with a photograph of Wike and a lady with some children, claims that the governor is not the biological father of his children.
Nothing can be more diabolical, senseless and amateurish. Descending so low is neither in Ayu’s character nor nature.
Those planting these stories against the PDP and her national chairman are simply showing their lack of intelligence.
We state, categorically and without equivocation, that the posts are completely false. Even the inelegant construction of the posts puts them beneath Ayu.
Dr. Ayu never said anything after Wike’s statements yesterday, and does not intend to say anything in response.
This is even more senseless as the national chairman has met Gov. Wike’s children on a number of times. We advise the APC and other mischievous people engaged in this shameful and criminal enterprise to be more professional next time.
