The All Progressives Congress (APC), Rivers State Chapter, has asked the former Governor of the State who is now the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike to dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and join them.
According to the APC, Wike is a politician whose name shakes and echoes in the society.
The Rivers State APC Caretaker Committee Chairman, Tony Okocha, stated this in Port Harcourt, following the shocking defection of 27 State lawmakers to the APC.
Okocha said; “I don’t think the defection was part of plans for Wike to join APC.”
“Whatever their reason is, when they get to the bridge they will cross it.”
“Wike is a politician whose name shakes and echoes in the society; so nobody can think or say for him if he will defect to APC or not.”
“In 2023, he immensely aided the victory of APC in the state.”
“The best thing we are asking him to do is to come and join the APC because it is the government in power.”
