Contrary to emerging reports that the Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi has been suspended by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the South East Vice-Chairman of the Party Austin Umahi, has insisted his brother and Governor is not serving any suspension by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.
He made this known on Tuesday during the inauguration of the new leadership of Technical Special Assistants and Special Assistants to the Ebonyi State Governor in Abakaliki.
He urged the general public to disregard such reports as they were planted by mischievous elements to cause confusion.
“There is news making round in the social media and around town today that the state governor is under suspension by the National Working committee of our great party, PDP.
“So, I charge you as appointees of the state governor to always respond to such speculations on behalf of the government, because as far as I’m concerned such thing never happened.
“It is a rumour and I want to use this opportunity to inform the public to disregard such information,” he added.
