SAN FRANCISCO, September 22, (THEWILL) – The New Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Sunday asked President Goodluck Jonathan to recall the sacked Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matters, Senator Joy Emordi, and immediately sack the Aviation Minister, Princess Stella Odua.
In a statement issued by the National Publicity Secretary of the faction of the party, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, the party accused Odua of advising the Presidency to induce members of the National Assembly financially to impeach their principal officers.
And in demanding that Odua be sacked, the party accused her of abandoning the remodeling of the Port Harcourt International Airport while completing those started at the same time because of the assumed conflict between Jonathan and Governor Chibuike Amaechi of Rivers State.
The statement reads:
“We have equally read reports that Senator Joy Emordi was sacked as Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matters because of her candid advice that inducing members of the National Assembly financially to impeach their principal officers would be counter-productive. If this is true, we hereby demand her immediate reinstatement.
“For Senator Emordi to be bold enough to tell Mr. President the implication of such a corrupt inducement of the lawmakers should earn her commendation rather than a sack.
Instead of sacking such a forthright and patriotic Amazon, the President should sack those hawks around him planning to ridicule him by encouraging him to embark on acts capable of making him very unpopular amongst his supporters and followers.
“Mr. President, if it is true that the Aviation Minister, Princess Stella Odua, has abandoned the remodeling of the Port Harcourt International Airport while completing those started at the same time because of the assumed conflict between you and your brother, Governor Chibuike Amaechi of Rivers State, we demand her immediate sack before she causes further damage to your administration.
“We plead with you, Mr. President, not to embark upon any further act or impunity that will endanger the peace and unity of our troubled nation.”
