PDP Dismisses Anyanwu’s Forgery Claim


The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) National Working Committee (NWC) has dismissed allegations of signature forgery raised by its National Secretary, Senator Samuel Anyanwu.

The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, spoke on Monday, October 20, in a press conference on behalf of the NWC in Abuja.

He revealed that Anyanwu personally signed several official letters, including the one notifying the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of the party’s convention scheduled for November 15 and 16 in Ibadan, Oyo State.

According to Ologunagba, the letters were signed just hours before the 102nd National Executive Committee meeting held on August 25.
