iIt is extremely disturbing that when some men get a little taste of power, they become delusional and egomaniacal.
One of such men is the chairman of the PDP, Senator Iyorchia Ayu who doesn’t care if the whole village burns down as long as he remains chief. In his senseless lust for power, Ayu seems not to be mindful that the party is heading for crises but is more concerned with holding on to a position as chairman.
I would like to remind Mr Ayu, in case he has developed spontaneous amnesia that before he was elected, he made a promise to step down if a Northerner became the presidential candidate of the party.
Of course, Ayu has shown that he has no iota of integrity. A man with honour would simply get a pen and write a resignation but Ayu has neither of the above quality. If shamelessness was a person, his name would be Iyorchia Ayu.
His recent outburst calling some members of the party children just shows that the age of Methuselah has nothing to do with the wisdom of Solomon, as they say.
It also shows that he is incapable of simple apprehension. The fact that he is older than other members, doesn’t mean he was the only founding father of the PDP.
I make bold to say that like me, most of those he called children were founding members of the PDP as well.
Ayu should look to his own children if he wants to talk down on people. We are not his children.
If I may ask, when the PDP was being derailed by the former Chairman, Uche Secondus, where was Ayu?
Was he not hiding in his crevice like a frightened lizard when Governor Nyesom Wike took on the gauntlet of leadership of the party?
Ayu and his cohorts should know and accept the fact that Wike is a hero of democracy. Nyesom Wike fought the APC and fighting the feudalists in the PDP.
Again, Ayu must resign in the interest of the party.
