Senator Samuel Anyanwu, the embattled National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has alleged that certain party leaders are seeking to remove him from office due to his relationship with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Chief Nyesom Wike.
Anyanwu stated that he was validly elected as National Secretary and that the party’s constitution outlines the process for replacing him. He accused some leaders of forging documents and altering party guidelines to justify his removal.
“I was validly nominated and elected as National Secretary of this great party at a national convention and our constitution clearly spells out how a person occupying positions in the National Working Committee can be replaced if the need arises.
“Everybody knows my relationship with (Chief Nyesom) Wike.

“We were local government chairmen and members of the PDP, I cannot deny him,” Anyanwu told Sunday Vanguard.
Anyanwu also claimed that some PDP governors and members of the Board of Trustees (BoT) are working together to weaken the party for personal gain.
He described their endorsement of Sunday Udeh-Okoye as National Secretary, based on a Court of Appeal judgment, as “a proxy war.”
“It was strange that while I was campaigning, some people went as far as forging documents by illegally altering our party guidelines and inserted a clause which is not in the original document to say I must resign. The police are investigating, I won’t say much on that,” Anyanwu added.
