The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) UK Chapter has condemned the actions of Acting National Chairman Umar Iliya Damagum and National Secretary Senator Samuel Anyanwu.

In a statement signed by Dr. Anita Jackson, the group demanded the immediate expulsion of Damagum and Anyanwu from the party.

The statement accused them of working to undermine Governor Siminalayi Fubara, one of the party’s top performers, and secretly aligning with the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The group described Damagum and Anyanwu as a “toxic poison” that must be eradicated if the party is

The statement called on the party’s leadership to take immediate and decisive action against the duo, saying they are a “festering wound” on the PDP’s reputation.

“We are incensed and appalled by the treacherous actions of Damagum and Anyanwu. Their egregious betrayal and sabotage of the party’s interests are a stark reminder of the cancer that has infiltrated the highest echelons of our beloved party,” Jackson said.

“Their clandestine schemes to undermine Governor Siminalayi Fubara, one of the PDP’s most outstanding performers, are a clear indication of their allegiance to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and their desire to destroy the PDP from within. Their actions are a toxic poison that must be eradicated if the party is to survive.

“We demand that Damagum and Anyanwu be expelled from the party forthwith. Their presence is a festering wound on the PDP’s reputation, and their continued involvement will only lead to further damage and destruction. We will not stand idly by while these traitors sell out our party to the highest bidder.

“Their interference in legal matters, their plots to derail the party’s progress, and their blatant disregard for the party’s constitution are all evidence of their treasonous intentions.

“We will not tolerate this behaviour any longer. The actions of both men are a slap in the face to the millions of loyal members who have worked tirelessly to build the PDP into a formidable force in Nigerian politics.”
