The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmakers at the National Assembly have praised the party’s National Working Committee (NEC) for sacking the former National Secretary, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, and appointing Setonji Koshoedo as the acting national secretary.
The NEC had at its meeting last Tuesday removed Anyanwu and appointed Koshoedo, who is the National Deputy Secretary, to act as the national secretary pending the Southeast representation of Rt. Hon. Udo Okoye as Substantive National Secretary.
In a statement by its spokesperson,
Hon. Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, the lawmakers said the latest action by the NWC has laid to rest the fragrant refusal of Anyanwu to vacate the office despite his removal by the court.
Ugochinyere, the Ideato representative in the House of Representatives and Imo PDP State leader on behalf of the coalition, called for the expulsion of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, and the erstwhile national secretary, Anyanwu, from the party which ruled Nigeria for 16 years.
“We received with joy the decision of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which approved the nomination of Arch. Setonji Koshoedo, as the new National Secretary of the party, thereby officially sacking Anyanwu, who had been sacked by the court.
“We say a big congratulations to the PDP NWC for the bold decision today to formally ratify the sack of the impostor, former National Secretary, Sen.Samuel Anyawu, and his replacement with Arc Hon. Setonji Koshoedo, the Deputy National Secretary who is now acting as National Secretary, pending the Southeast representation of Rt. Hon. Udo Okoye as Substantive National Secretary.
“This bold decision today is one of the needed urgent decisions we have been agitating for to help set the PDP on the recovery path.
“The NWC must also be bold enough to officially adopt the Ikimi disciplinary report and expel the traitors who have vowed to kill the party because of their greedy politics backed by Abuja plots of land bazaar.
“We salute the NWC and urge them to do more to earn back the trust of Nigerians that the dark days of Anyanwu and his paymasters, notably Nyesom Wike are destroyed. Their expulsion is not negotiable.”
