The Kwara State Governor, Abdulfatah Ahmed has denied a report published in a national newspaper that he plans to leave the People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP) along with seven other governors ahead of the 2015 elections.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Speaking through his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communications, Muyideen Akorede, Governor Ahmed said there was no iota of truth in the report and dismissed the publication as the handiwork of mischief-makers bent on causing disaffection in the PDP.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernor Ahmed has no intention of leaving the PDP now or in the future. I wish to state with all emphasis at my disposal that the report is untrue and could only have been orchestrated by mischief makers. Governor Ahmed remains a loyal and committed member of the PDP and sees the current realignments in the party as normal in any political association. It is his belief PDP is certain to come out stronger,\u201d Mr Akorede said in a statement issued in Ilorin on Sunday evening.<\/p>\n

Speaking further, Mr Akorede pointed to Governor Ahmed\u2019s appearance on Channels Television\u2019s Question Time on Sunday Morning, during which he reaffirmed his loyalty to the PDP and his firm belief that the current disagreements in the party are temporary, as further evidence of the Governor\u2019s strong commitment to the party on whose platform he was voted into office.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt any rate, Governor Ahmed believes that it is more fruitful to focus on delivering good governance and improving public confidence in our democracy rather than speculating on the 2015 elections which are still two years away.\u201d<\/p>\n
