The chairman of the Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Bro Felix Obuah has dismissed the allegation by the All Progressives Congress, APC, that the State Governor-elect, Chief Barr Nyesom Wike plans to defect to the APC as malicious, baseless and a mere wishful thinking of the propagators of such falsehood.
Reacting to the allegation through a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media, Jerry Needam, the PDP chairman said it’s most unthinkable that the governor-elect, and PDP leader in the State is considering dumping the party for the APC because doing so is like preferring hell which the APC represents to paradise.
There is no gainsaying the fact, Prince Obuah stressed, that Rivers State is a PDP State as demonstrated in the just concluded general elections and cannot be betrayed by the leader and holder of its mandate who has given all he has to ensure the party is not killed by self-seeking individuals, the bulk of whom make up the membership of the APC in the State.
Rather than do that, Prince Obuah added, the governor-elect, Chief Wike will do all within his power and humanly possible to deliver on his electioneering promises to the people to ensure they are not disappointed and to strengthen their support and belief in the PDP.
The PDP Boss enjoined such rumour peddlers and, or daydreamers of Wike’s defection to join hands with the PDP-led government in reshaping, restoring and rebuilding the State that has been badly damaged by Gov Amaechi’s visionless administration under whom the State economy has hit the lowest ebb as never witnessed before in history.
“May I also use this opportunity to make it abundantly clear to our APC brother members that there is an ocean of difference between the PDP leadership as presently constituted in Rivers State and ably led by His Excellency, Chief Barr Nyesom Wike, State Governor-elect and the APC.
We are not as feeble minded and unsteady in character as APC members and will never do what they have done that has only attracted to them an outcast image before the court of public opinion, as doing so will be foolhardy of us.
We will remain steadfast and focused to our vision of new better Rivers State where the welfare of its people will be adequately taken care of, and opportunities created for growth and development of our abundant human capital in fairness to all and anchored on justice.
We are also most willing to receive back into the PDP fold those APC members who have genuinely repented and wish to come back to help move our State forward,” Prince Obuah declared.
The State PDP chairman, Bro Felix Obuah assured Rivers people that their mandate freely given to the PDP and the Governor-elect, Chief Barr Nyesom is sacrosanct.

I don't think That Mr. Wike will ever defect to the APC, I think politics btw Mr Amaechi and Mr Wike has passed from mere politcs to something else..

I pray that they be reconciled for the good of the Rivers people and Nigeria in general.

I remember the days when Rivers state was like Ekiti, I don't pray for such to occur again.

Wike be reconciled to Amaechi, he's ur senior partner, Amaechi be reconciled to Wike, You're brothers..

blood, they say, is thicker than water..

A peaceful Rivers, A peaceful Ekiti, A peaceful Nigeria....

Even if wike(d) defect in the next minute, I believe APC will never accept him!

Mama piss nd wike dem go hear am for Amechi hand!

From the moment i saw the initial post where APC claimed that Wike wanted to defect i knew it wasn't true. I'm glad that Felix Obuah has now clarified the true position of things. We pray for peace in Rivers State and may God grant Wike the strength, wisdom, and knowledge to handle the affairs of the state.

I don't think his kind is needed in APC

loool is just like saying as Buhari won the president seat he wants to go to PDP that can never happen ,APC and there thug Ameachi no just get gist and then no wan accept defeat for rivers state looool, From the outgoing president i learnt accepting defeat can even project you higher than where you wanted to be, From i Ameachi learnt not accepting defeat turns you to a shameless liar and a thug. May God guide and strengthen the president elect and all the governor elects in Nigeria.

His kind needed at APC...?? Wike doesn't seem like someone that just jumps about from party to party and I'm sure he would remain at PDP and lead the state to become a really great and formidable powerhouse. May God guide and strengthen the governor-elect...

Contrary to what you think, If Amaechi and Wike reconcile, it will be bad for the unity of Rivers state. The Riverine (especially Ijaw) part of Rivers state despite believing that it is there turn to rule, gave Wike their votes because of his staunch support for their brother President Jonathan and their disdain for Amaechi who did the opposite. A reconciliation of the two will lend credence to the already existing suspicion that there was an Ikwerre gang up to make Ijaws and the Riverine groups lose at both Federal and state level.
Amaech and Wike should remain enemies for the good of Rivers state or at least make sure their reconciliation doesn't get to the public.
