Ortom who was reacting to the governorship aspirants in the state rejecting his return to the party noted that he was foundation PDP member in the state and did not need to consult with any party governorship aspirant if he decides to join the party. Speaking on his behalf, his special adviser on Media and ICT, Tahav Agerzua noted that he is yet to declare to anyone that he is defecting. The governor noted that he would address the issue when the time comes. But the issue of the party is an issue of interest. Maybe the aspirants feel that their interest is threatened, but surely l don’t think they have the controlling powers of the structure of PDP, Ortom said.
