The spokesperson of Coalition of Opposition Lawmakers in the House of Representatives, Rep Ikenga Ugochinyere has lamented the current state of the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), noting that it was shameful that the party is now in disarray.

Ugochinyere said this in a statement issued in Sunday in Abuja while alleging that some national leaders of the PDP are working with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders.

Ugochinyere also claimed that there was a plan to ensure that the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting to choose a Chairman from North Central where the position was originally supposed to come from was not possible.

The rep alleged that there were some impostors in PDP, adding that APC members would be laughing at the PDP now that they wanted to sabotage their party.

He said that the reasons given since last year for not holding a NEC meeting to choose new leaders were no longer tenable.

“Till now, no NEC meeting. They keep giving different excuses.

“If the founding fathers of this party are still alive and are seeing what I am seeing they will be crying.

“At a time when Nigeria is facing a serious crisis, the main opposition party is now in the bed with the ruling party,” he said.

Ugochinyere said that the acting leadership of the party had forgotten the expectations of Nigerians for a vibrant opposition.
