The Plateau Political Movement (PPM), has rejected ‘the audacious’ inclusion, by House of Representatives Member, Ikenga Ugochinyere, of Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang on the list of alleged party leaders sabotaging the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in favour of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), as the 2027 general elections politics begins to take centre stage.
Accordingly, the group has urged the people of Ideato Federal Constituency in Imo State to call their representative to order.
The Group through its National Coordinator, Kenazi Mani, who made the call in a statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Sunday (yesterday, November 24), said the call became imperative following the lawmaker’s claim of the involvement of Gov. Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau in an alleged conspiracy against the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Ugochinyere had mentioned Mutfwang along with some other PDP Governors as part of the conspiracy against the PDP during a live press conference on Sunday.
Reacting to his claim, the PPM National Coordinator urged the people of the Ideato Federal Constituency to call him to order over his lack of focus concerning the issues of the constituency.
“Ugochinyere was again seen on Sunday on a sponsored national live cast making unverified innuendos on the issues in the PDP.
“It is quite unfortunate that this lawmaker who recently joined the PDP from the Action Peoples Party (APP), has continued to propagate what he does not know about.
“It is quite disheartening that at a time when Gov. Caleb Mutfwang is marshalling forces within the Plateau and the North Central, Ugochinyere goes about wrongly labelling him to the contrary.
“We make bold to say that just as Gov. Mutfwang has upped governance on the Plateau, he is also bringing his prowess to bear in the North-Central PDP and Ugochinyere is merely acting as a sponsored agent with the determination to destabilise the party from within.
“We thus call on the people of the Ideato Federal Constituency to call their representative to order and stop embarrassing the dignity for which they are known.
“After all, the Ideato people are not known as political jobbers,” Mani said.
