EBONYI State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, yesterday vowed not to readmit former members who
left the party to contest elections in other political parties in the 2011 April general elections.

State Chairman of the Party, Chief Ugorji Oti who spoke at a briefing, alleged that those members did not only join other parties to contest elections, but also used their resources to cause mayhem during the last general election.

He described them as ingrates who after they had gained political prominence and wealth decided to fight against the growth and development of the PDP at ward, state and national levels.

According to the Chairman, “the door is shut to those our members who for no just course left the party last year and besides that they left the party, the kind of loss, deaths, destruction that our party members suffered in their hands, is not just what we can forget easily. And that is why we must ensure that they would have cleansed themselves of such inhumane activities .

“People who were nothing before they joined the party and  became everything they needed to become and only to use their resources to destroy the party and destroy people.”
