PDP chieftains seek Enoidem’s exit as MPM National Chairman
The recent crisis in Etim Ekpo chapter of the Maintain Peace Movement (MPM) has so far raised doubts about Barr. Emmanuel Enoidem’s ability to successfully deliver on the mandate behind the formation of the organization in Akwa Ibom State.
These concerns became ripe following recent media attacks at the National Chairman of the Maintain Peace Movement, Barr. Enoidem, over accusations on his authoritarian style of leadership.
Recent reports in the State indicate that the first lady of Akwa Ibom, Dr. (Mrs) Martha Udom Emmanuel had recently postponed plans to commission a FEYREP project in Etim Ekpo Local Government Area, after commissioning a similar project in Ika, citing the rising tension in the area.
Concerned members of the State PDP have questioned the moral grounds why Barr. Enoidem is still calling the shots at MPM, after declaring his interest to run for the Ikot Ekpene Senatorial seat ahead of the 2023 elections.
Those calling for his head have reasoned that the MPM National Chairman could use his position against those within the PDP family, who are not sympathetic to his senatorial ambition currently zoned to the Abak-Etim Ekpo-Ika axis of the State.
Our investigations have revealed that the recent inauguration of MPM, Lagos chapter, had ended in a fiasco, with the members pointing accusing fingers at Bar. Emmanuel Enoidem’s attitude in running the affairs of the organization.
Many believe that the purported use of veto power, amongst other, complaints against Enoidem, are enough grounds to disqualify him from running an organization with its aims and objectives anchored on promoting peace and tranquility in the land.
A PDP chieftain who confided with our correspondent in Uyo has expressed fear that other members of the organization may soon follow the steps of their contemporaries in Etim Ekpo, where exco members of the MPM have thrown in the towel, over perceived grievances against the leadership of the organization.
To nib the wound in the bud, the party chieftain has suggested that Barr. Enoidem be relieved of his appointment to enhance fairness and equity in running the affairs of the organization for the overall interest of the PDP Family.
