The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State has categorically denied rumors of being involved in coalition talks with other political parties.
The party’s State chairman, Austine Nwachukwu, described the rumors as false and malicious, aimed at destabilizing the party.
According to Nwachukwu, the claims are the handiwork of disgruntled former members who regret leaving the party.
He stated, “There is no coalition whatsoever. PDP remains committed to its values and principles, and will resist any attempt to undermine its integrity.”
Nwachukwu warned party members and the general public to disregard the narrative, which he noted was being peddled by failed politicians driven by selfish interests and personal gain.
The PDP State chairman reaffirmed the party’s commitment to internal unity and warned against any coalition that supports a power shift to the North, which he described as a betrayal of the PDP’s long-standing tradition of power rotation.
He added that the party is open to welcoming new members but will not be part of any political arrangement that compromises its core principles.
Nwachukwu urged party members to remain vigilant, ignore false narratives, and stay committed to ensuring the PDP’s victory in the 2027 general elections.
