The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Debo Ologunagba, says the party is disappointed by the defection of Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
Ologunagba expressed the party’s disappointment on Wednesday while responding to questions in an interview on ‘The Morning Brief’, a programme on Channels Television.
He called on serving governors in the PDP to continue to recognise their role as leaders in the party entrusted with political power by the people who voted for them.
“The PDP is utterly disappointed by those actions, having regard to what we know behind the scene. But having said that, people have a right to decide what they want to do; the consequences can follow,” he said.
According to him, the PDP was aware of moles undermining the party’s progress.
He, however, assured that the PDP national convention scheduled to be held in Ibadan, Oyo State, in November would help rejuvenate the party from its foundation and reposition it for future elections.
