Edo State Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chris Nehikhare, yesterday, denounced‎ social media report that he has resigned from his position, saying the information is a lie.

“In the last 24 hours there has been a diabolical post on social media suggesting that I have resigned my position as State Publicity Secretary of PDP, the largest, most disciplined, consistent and cohesive political party in Africa as well as Chairman of the Sub-committee on Publicity of the Edo State 2020 campaign council.

“I state here categorically that the information is a lie and the figment of the limited imagination of the desperados managing a lame campaign that has run out of ideas and have decided to take the Simple way out.

“I have said it repeatedly that governance is a serious business. Simpletons cannot manage our affairs.

“My convenant with Edo people is to help enthrone a Governor that is transparent, financially prudent and puts Edo people first. Governor Obaseki and PDP represents liberation from touts, godfathers and treasury looters.

“How can I join a party that is populated by persons of questionable characters that lack the trust and respect of Edo people and many Nigerians alike.
