Amidst widely reported crisis rocking Nigeria’s leading opposition Party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the National Chairman of the party, Senator Iyorcha Ayu, is set to jet off to Europe on Wednesday undisclosed reason.
It will be recalled that the party has been engulfed in crisis, which led to the calls for Ayu’s resignation by some stakeholders.
Ayu, in a statement via his Special Adviser
(Media and Communications), Simon Imobo-Tswam, said he will be out of the country for about two weeks.
While away, Ayu said that the Deputy Chairman (North), Amb. Iliya Damagun, will act in his place.
Already, the National chairman has communicated the handover to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
He is expected back at month-end.
