Owner of DAAR Communications, Raymond
Dokpesi, has vowed not to step down for any other candidate jostling for the
chairmanship position of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Denying reports that he has withdrawn for
Olabode George, a former vice-chairman of the PDP (South-west), Dokpesi said
he, in fact, had been busy meeting with delegates across the country.
“High Chief Dokpesi is busy meeting the
delegates and outlining his programmes for the reformation and rebuilding of
the PDP,” said his media team said in a statement.
“He is not considering stepping down for
anyone as he is widely accepted by delegates across the country. He remains the
candidate to beat”, it added.
The team maintained that Dokpesi had visited
sixteen states and will visit the remaining twenty states and the FCT before
the convention.
“As at noon of Saturday,
30th July, we have visited all the states in the southern region, except Ekiti,
which we are heading to now, he continued
“We will be meeting delegates from the
northern region as from Sunday; so, High Chief Dokpesi is committed to the
campaign and he is confident that he will win by the grace of God and the
support of the delegates.”
