Those Attacking Me For Leaving PDP Now Crying – Umahi Demands Apology

Dave Umahi, the governor of Ebonyi State, has called for an apology from PDP members who insulted him after he left the party two years ago.

The governor who declared his interest in running for president in June joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) and left the PDP on November 17, 2020.

Speaking on Arise TV on Friday, Umahi claimed that some of his former party members who had been upset by his snub to the APC have since broken down in tears. He demanded their regrets.

He said, “I didn’t move from PDP to APC to have the ticket of the ruling party as presidential candidate. I only did that because I perceived that PDP was not going to give ticket to an Igbo man and I felt like it was not fair because we have served the party since 1999.

“A lot of people that are crying today were the people that attacked me for leaving PDP at that stage but subsequently, they left and so they owe me apologies.”

The governor’s assertion is coming amid a face-off between the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, and the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
