Former Deputy Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bode George has revealed the real reason behind the suspension of former National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.

After his suspension at the ward level, Ayu stepped down, and Umar Damagum was appointed as Acting National Chairman.
The embattled PDP Chairman had been embroiled in a bitter feud with five PDP governors called the G-5.
Reacting, the elder statesman said Ayu behaved like a good manager by stepping down.
Speaking to pressmen, George said: “Those who suspended Ayu at his ward wanted to embarrass him, and that is why they did what they did. He has to be a good manager and not behave like the headmaster of a primary school.
“I am appealing to all sides to allow peace to reign otherwise the crisis will consume this party the way they are going about it.
