A Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senator representing Cross River South District, Gershom Bassey has said the PDP was beyond the control of any particular person and Anyone Who Tries To Own it alone “will run into trouble.”
This is coming after the governor of his state, Ben Ayade defected to the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC.
“The truth is that the PDP is a very unique party, it belongs to everybody. It doesn’t belong to one person. And that is the nature of the PDP right from inception.

“So when you have a situation where one person may want to own the party, he may run into problems. The PDP does not belong to anybody, it belongs to the men and women of Nigeria. It’s a national party,” he said.
The senator said Cross River was “fully PDP” despite Mr Ayade’s defection and he would remain in PDP.
