Anyim Refutes Reports Linking Him With New Political Party

Posted by African Examiner Featured, Press Releases Friday, September 11th, 2015

Former Senate President and immediate past Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Anyim Pius Anyim, has denied reports that he is part of a group of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) politicians who have teamed up with the party’s former National Chairman, Ahmed Muazu, to form a new political party.

Describing the report as totally false, mischievous and irresponsible, Anyim said that he has not had any meetings or discussions with Alhaji Ahmed Muazu “pursuant to the formation of a new political party.”

In a press statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Friday, Anyim said that he has not seen, met with, or spoken to, the former PDP Chairman in the last two months.

He is also denied being aware that any person or group of persons is in the process of forming any new party, or parties and that no one has so far consulted him on the matter.

He further said in the terse statement that he is “neither interested in, nor available for,any such consultations”.
