Party dismisses report as false, insists Aondoakaa remains its 2027 governorship candidate
The Benue State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dismissed a social media report alleging that its leader and immediate past governor, Chief Samuel Ortom, convened an emergency meeting of party stakeholders in Makurdi to discuss court cases involving its 2027 governorship candidate, Chief Michael Kaase Aondoakaa, SAN.
The party described the report as false, mischievous and misleading, accusing its promoters of attempting to create the impression of an internal crisis within its ranks.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, the PDP State Publicity Secretary, Bright Yima Antyo, said no such meeting had taken place and maintained that Ortom was not in Makurdi at the time of the alleged gathering.
