A former national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olisa Metuh says he was not involved in the composition of the party’s campaign council list for the November 6 Anambra gubernatorial election.
Ebiloma Abdullahi, Special
Assistant to Chief Metuh in a statement titled ‘Anambra Election: Metuh Not Involved in Composition of PDP Campaign Council List’ said allegations that he manipulated the list was unfounded, baseless and untrue.
Metuh said he had been outside the country for medical reasons which has kept him away from political activities.
The statement read in part: “The attention of the former National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Chief Olisa Metuh, has been drawn to a misrepresenting report in a section of the social media, purporting that he dissociated himself from the composition of the PDP Campaign Council list in the November 6, Anambra state governorship election.
“Chief Olisa Metuh he has been in the United Kingdom for his medical treatment; a situation that has kept him away from political activities in the past few weeks, including recent arrangements for the Anambra state Gubernatorial election.
“However, to set the record straight, in the particular case of the composition of the PDP Campaign Council list, Chief Metuh was not involved and therefore not responsible for anybody’s fate in that regard.
“In view of the foregoing therefore the allegation that Chief Metuh manipulated the list is completely false, baseless and unfounded”.
