We have not sacked Adeyanju as PDP New Media Director - Ahmed Makarfi says
Chairman
of PDP caretaker committee, Ahmed Makarfi, has refuted claims that the party
has sacked its Director of New Media, Deji Adeyanju. The party in a statement
released by its Head, Publicity division, Chinwe Nnorom yesterday, dissociated
itself from Deji Adeyanju, adding that the position of Director of New Media
which he occupies is non-existent.
"The PDP hereby
states unequivocally that the position of Director of New Media is non-existent
and alien to the PDP Establishment Manual, and has not appointed Prince Deji
Adeyanju as the PDP Director of New Media. For emphasis, Social (new) Media is
one of the Units in the Publicity Division of the Party and not a separate
directorate, division or unit".
However
in a text message sent to Premium Times, Makarfi said the leadership of the
party only had issues with Adeyanju over his “far-reaching statements” that are
usually “without clearance.”
“If he was employed by
the last National Working Committee, then we will have no reason to remove him
but to streamline his work,”he said
Adeyanju was appointed in December 2015 and had been
responsible for issuing press statements on behalf of the party.
