The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday, June 29, said that Sen. Iyorchia Ayu remained its National Chairman.
Senior Adviser to the PDP National Chairman on Communication and Strategy, Simon Imobo-Tswam, reiterated this in a statement he issued in Abuja.
Imobo-Tswam advised the public to ignore the mischievous social media publications alleging suspension of Ayu, describing it as the work of mischief makers and idle minds.

He explained:
Earlier today, mischievous stories broke on the social media to the effect that Ayu has been ‘suspended over allegations of misappropriation.
The stories further add that the Deputy National Chairman (North), Amb. Umar Damagun, has been appointed in his place in an acting capacity.
This is supposed to have followed a phantom emergency meeting of the PDP National Working Committee (NWC).
Imobo-Tswam said even though the PDP did not wish to dignify falsehood with a response, an official reaction was necessary in order to stem the tide of misinformation.
