The National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu has denied working secretly for the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
In a statement issued by his media aide, Ikenna Onuoha, Anyanwu described as misleading the report that he is working surreptitiously for Tinubu and APC.
He dismissed his traducer, one Adeyanju Deji as renowned serial blackmailer.
Deji had in the report also lashed out at the PDP as a useless party whose national secretary was working to scuttle the chances of the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Anyanwu submitted that there was no way he could accept to work for the APC which he said has thrown Nigeria upside down.
He added that he could gather himself up to work for Tinubu who is finding it difficult to address Nigerians owing press phobia.
The statement reads; “The attention of the National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Samuel Nnaemeka Anyanwu has been drawn to a misleading story credited to a known serial blackmailer, one Adeyanju Deji on social media accusing the party’s National Scribe of secretly working for the APC and its Presidential candidate, Ahmed Tinubu.
“Adeyanju Deji also described the PDP as a useless party because to him “its National Secretary is secretly working with others to support Tinubu and to scuttle the chances of his own party’s candidate.’’ among others.
“This allegation is not only mischievous and baseless, but totally false and misleading.
“The truth of the matter is that there is no way a National Scribe of the largest and most popular political party in Africa can ever agree to work for a party as APC, that has thrown Nigeria upside down from “top to bottom. It is also embarrassing for Adeyanju Deji to ever imagine that Senator Anyanwu can agree to support a Presidential candidate that is finding it difficult to address Nigerians because of press phobia.
“Senator Anyanwu is a coordinated, focused, dedicated and committed politician who never left PDP since he joined the party at its inception for over two decades.
“It therefore becomes petty, childish and laughable for a known character like Adeyanju Deji to peddle falsehood after receiving hundreds of thousands from same desperate and serial “Governorship aspirant in Imo state to malign a man struggling to deliver his party and its candidates in the 2023 elections.
“For the records, Senator Anyanwu has loudly appealed to Imo people and Nigerians at large in different fora to support the PDP Presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and other candidates of the party ahead of the 2023 polls.
“The public is enjoined to disregard this falsehood and see the Adeyanju Deji as an unrepentant blackmailer of the 21st century”.
