According to Ayodele Fayose on his official X handle;
“I dissociate myself from media reports linking me with any self declaration as Chairman of the PDP and suspension of the likes of former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, Governors Wike, Makinde, etc from the party. As at today, Ambassador Umar Damagun is the Chairman of the PDP and I am not aspiring to be chairman of the party. It is also important for the public to note that I’m not the only Fayose in Nigeria, there are many others. I am Peter Ayodele Fayose”.
