According to Governor Nyesom Wike, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) needs him if it wants to gain significant support in Rivers State.
In a press conference on Friday in Port Harcour, Wike insisted that the PDP cannot claim to have done its part in Rivers State without him carrying out his duties as a beloved governor.
“You can do without me I agree, but to say you will do without me in this state (Rivers), it will not be possible,” Wike declared.
The governor further asserted that it is sad the individuals who are pulling the string of discord in the PDP are those who rarely bring anything to the table.
Wike’s comments are not unconnected with the push to remove the PDP National Chairman, Senator Iyorchia Ayu. A cause which the Rivers State governor says became imperative, seeing that no southerner occupies any of the top three positions in the PDP.
