The All Progressives Congress, APC in Rivers state has alleged that the governor-elect in Rivers state, Nyesom Wike who won the guber contest in the state under PDP is making plans to cross to the APC. Wike, who was declared winner of the governorship election by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, received knocks over the alleged moves from the leadership of the APC in Rivers state.
State Publicity Secretary of the party, Chris Finebone said the plan uncovered, is meant for the Governor-elect to obtain the cover of APC and avoid a judicial dethronement. Wike’s latest move, APC said, is coming as no surprise “to those who know his antecedents”.
Giving insight into the plan, Finebone explained that Wike, as soon as he is received into the APC fold, will woo APC elders and leaders to prevail on Dr. Peterside to drop his quest for justice before the Election Petition Tribunal.
According to Finebone, “Having back-stabbed his mentors like former Senatorl, John Mbata in the past and more recently, Governor Chibuike Amaechi, he would only be living true to the unreliable ally that he has grown to be. “Wike’s history is replete with sabotage and dual personality often unstable among peers. So, we are not surprised at his latest moves to dump PDP to join APC.
“Such a move portrays him as unstable in relationship having at several instances, bitten the finger that fed him. He thinks
that by hiding under the canopy of APC membership, elders of the APC will prevail on Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside, the
governorship candidate of the party at the April 11 election, to abandon his quest for justice”.
