Barely a day after appearing on national television to dismiss report of his resignation, the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh has resigned as the spokesman of the party.
Mr. Metuh had on Tuesday alongside the PDP National Chairman, Bamanga Tukur, dispelled a newspaper report that he would resign on Thursday. His resignation takes effect from Thursday, June 20.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had, a few months ago, declared that the process through which Mr. Metuh and some other members of the PDP National Working Committee (NWC) emerged in the party’s national convention last year was unacceptable and illegal.
