“They urged all party members not to be distracted by the antics of a few but should go all out to vote for candidates of the PDP in the February 25 and March 11 elections.

In the statement, Mr Mark urged PDP members to be faithful to the party because jumping from one party to the other would make no sense, adding that political parties are vehicles for achieving one’s political ambition and must be held sacrosanct by obeying the rules and regulations.

According to Mr Mark, politicians who jump from one party to another are people without conviction or do not know what they want.

The senator representing Benue South, Abba Moro, urged the party members to remain steadfast.
