This is as aggrieved members took to the WhatsApp group of the Concerned PDP Vanguard for Change to complain over the controversial contract.
A message sent to stakeholders, NEC, BoT and all PDP caucuses by agtrieved parties titled, “N12 million of struggling PDP members money from form sale spent on three toilets, making it N4 million (each) for one toilet,” read;
“Will you all keep quiet to (sic) this and other outright corruption, abuse of office, divide and rule in NWC by Senator ayu?
“The PDP we know under ex-President Obasanjo and Jonathan was a party that Ministers resign from corruption allegations; a party that the PDP Speaker Dimeji Bankole was in court for corruption under a PDP administration.
“The PDP as a party has zero tolerance to corruption, especially when it becomes public. The party had always been concerned about its public image.
“So what kind of PDP do we have now with Senator Ayu’s outright corruption and abuse of office being celebrated by the enemies of PDP and our Presidential candidate?
“Members want our presidential candidate to win. We have laboured too much for PDP to allow one man to come destroy the party and kill the moral of members for our presidential campaign.”
