There were reports Saturday morning that the PDP elders which also had the likes of Prof. Jerry Gana and Prof. Adeniran have dumped the main opposition party for SDP.

However, the spokesperson for Orubebe, Gbenga Giwa, in a terse statement said, “While Orubebe could not begrudge people for defecting to any party for whatever reasons, the former minister still remained a member of the PDP.”

Also, in a statement he personally signed and made available to reporters, Oghiadomhe, on his own part, said it was wicked for anyone to associate him with the SDP.

He stated, “For the record, l was never part of any group where a decision was made to dump PDP for SDP.

“To my great party , the PDP and millions of our members , no one has my mandate to determine or link my name to any political party without my written consent.

“Whoever must have affiliated my name to any political party other than the PDP does not have my mandate and this should be regarded as the handiwork of mischief makers.

“My membership and loyalty are to the PDP alone which is my party of choice since its formation.”
