“As far as we are concerned, as at today, we do not have any agreement with any other political party.
“Am privileged to know what is happening at the party, not only in the State but at the national level. So we do not have any such agreement with anybody,” Amah said.
The Abia PDP Chairman also declared that there is no faction in the State as according the him, all the names of the candidates of the PDP he leads, had already been successfully uploaded on the INEC official portal.
He further said that Abia PDP has taken up the task of reconciling aggrieved primary election aspirants.
