Over the past few weeks, there have been several attempts to remove Secondus from his position.
This has resulted in multiple court judgments, both barring and reinstating him as PDP’s national chairman.
On Tuesday, the executive committee of the PDP Ward 5 in Ikuru, Andoni LGA of Rivers State, suspended Secondus as a member of the party.
Umahi, speaking on Channels Television on Friday, said: “I won’t say I’m happy with what is happening to the chairman — Secondus — because he was a bit naive.
“When I was leaving, I told them — do two things. I was told that the working committee, especially Secondus, was going to be unduly removed to give one man or two the leverage of owning the PDP. I said that should not happen, and I told Secondus and I told all the working committee when they visited me in Abuja.
“And the second one was — cede the presidency to the south-east and we will all be together. But they did not. I think it is the will of God to be where I am and I’m very happy.”
