A gubernatorial aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Plateau State, Godfrey Miri, on Sunday appealed to the people of the state to disregard rumours in the that says he has decamped from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

It will be recalled, that last week, a man who claimed to be Miri’s campaign Director-General during the APC governorship flag off campaign announced that he has defected into the fold of the APC.

Miri who issued a statement through his campaign organisation and signed by its Director General, Chaplain Gideon Yoila, said he still remains a member of the PDP and has never indicated interest to defect to the APC or asked any person to make such bogus pronouncements in his stead.
The signed statement reads: “At the time the Lalong Flag off rally was taking place, Mr. Godfrey Miri was in Abuja for consultations with Mr. President. There is no iota of truth in this news and we think it is a calculated and malicious attempt to tarnish the political image of our principal.
