The chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC in Abia state, Hon. Donatus Nwankpa has said that Dr. Alex Otti is still in APC as he has not joined the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP as being rumoured by the opposition party, PDP.
In a chat with newsmen, he described it as an effort by the PDP to entertain themselves and make its party popular.
Hon. Nwankpa urged the public to ignore the rumour and added that it is a symptom of how ravaged the PDP is, maintaining that they want to become relevant in the polity by flying the rumour.
Some sections of the media had on Wednesday reported that Dr. Otti, former Chief Executive of the defunct Diamond Bank has concluded plans to return to the PDP.
The former banker was a member of the People’s Democratic Party until 2014.
He later joined the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA where he contested the 2019 election. In 2020, he announced his decision to join the All Progressives Congress in his Umuehim, Nvosi Isiala Ngwa South local government ward.
