โWe will talk about the commercialisation and privatisation of PDP. PDP is now once upon a timeโ, the tweet reads.
OsunDefender reports that the opposition party is presently battling leadership crisis.
There were indications that the PDP National Working Committee (NWC), might sanction Damagum and Anyanwu for an alleged letter to the Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt over the crisis in the party.
The letter was seen as an anti-party activity with some party leaders, including members of the National Executive Committee (NEC), calling for action against the duo.
But, on Thursday, Damagum warned that nobody could intimidate him to resign.
He said those calling for his resignation were only enhancing his popularity adding that he would speak at the appropriate time.
Speaking at the inauguration of the National Reconciliation and Disciplinary Committees, the acting chairman berated those spreading misinformation about NWC operations.
โLet me send a message to everyone talking about Damagum this, Damagum thatโI cannot be intimidated. The more you mention me, the more popular I become,โ Damagum said.
