Governor Wike berates Senator Hope Uzodinma for making false allegation against PDP
• calls for the protection of the Judiciary from the destructive tendencies of the APC
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has berated the Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma for alleging that the PDP is responsible for the attempted removal of National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress ( APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, saying that the allegation is baseless and untrue.
Governor Wike also declared that the APC is out to destroy the Judiciary. He urged the Judiciary to protect itself from the destructive tendencies of the APC.
In an interview at the Government House Port Harcourt on Tuesday, Governor Wike said the comments credited to Senator Hope Uzodinma are unfortunate.
He said: "I read that Senator Hope Uzodinma said that the PDP conspired to plot the attempted removal of APC National Chairman. That is an unfortunate lie.
"It is unfortunate that Senator Hope Uzodinma will have the temerity to make that false allegation. Hope Uzodinma was an APC agent while he was in PDP. That was why APC used him as an agent to support Ali Modu Sheriff, but they failed.
"It is unfortunate that people of questionable character are in Government. Hope Uzodinma cannot talk about the attempted removal of APC National Chairman and mention the PDP. What is our business in the attempted removal of Oshiomhole? "
Governor Wike said that the APC is not a political party that means well for the country.
"APC does not mean well for Nigeria. It is a party of strange bedfellows merely formed to take over power.
"If Senator Uzodinma dares to make such false comments again about the PDP , we will tell the world about him.
"That he fraudulently took the mandate of PDP does not mean that PDP is weak. Hope Uzodinma lacks the capacity to discuss the PDP."
Governor Wike said that Nigerians must be vigilant and work towards protecting the Judiciary.
"We must protect the Judiciary to do its work. But the Judiciary should protect itself. APC has destroyed the Judiciary," he said.
Governor Wike wondered why the Judiciary should allow leaders of the APC to toss it around as has been witnessed during the party's internal crisis.
He decried the situation where the Court of Appeal granted a stay of execution on the suspension of the APC National Chairman, but the FCT High Court went ahead to declare another person the Acting National Chairman. He said only the National Executive Committee of political parties have such powers.
He said: "The Judiciary should be very careful. The Judiciary should be alert. It should not allow itself to be used. It should not allow itself to be destroyed.
"APC should not be allowed to destroy the Judiciary. Judiciary was there before APC. It was there before any political party. I cannot see the Judiciary being destroyed and keep quiet.
"I am not interested in what happens in the APC. But I am concerned with the Judiciary and its survival. "
He urged the Chief Justice of Nigeria to caution judges.
"With what the APC is doing today, we may not have the Judiciary and everyone will pay the price. The party is trying to destroy the hope of the common man," he said.
Governor Wike regretted that the APC and her supporters attack the Judiciary when judgment is not in their favour. He pointed out the attacks on Justice Mary Odili in the Bayelsa State Governorship matter. The Governor said that the recent order by the wife of the member of a House of Representatives wherein she reaffirmed the freedom of the Former Emir of Kano, was hailed, even though she was the wife of a PDP member.
He said that the APC is an association that was only concerned about the removal of Former President Goodluck Jonathan. He said that having removed Jonathan, APC has been unable to use power to the advantage of Nigerians.
The Governor wondered how a national official of the APC who resigned to contest the Deputy Governorship position in Rivers State, would still go to court to seek to be Acting National Chairman.
Governor Wike agreed with the Former Governor of Lagos State that the struggle in the APC is about 2023.
"I agree with the Former Lagos State Governor, Senator Bola Tinubu that the crisis in APC is about 2023. Everyone wants to be President or Vice President. This virus is indeed worse than coronavirus," he said.

You would have replaced him with an unknown fool whose party has been deregistered.

Cry me a river!

That's why you're aboki, you must support uzohausa the betrayed !

Wow!!!

It's been long I heard from Wike. But when he talks, you know someone is talking.

I'll advise Hope to take Wike's threats seriously and shut his mouth lest the world know about him.
Don't dare NEW

I thought ''aboki'' is not allowed in Nairaland

Well Uzodimma is a politician and an Igbo man.

No matter how is it, he must do things that will favour me more than Wike.

Not matter of PDP or APC.....

He didn't betray anybody, he played his politics.

Indeed the world is ending soon.

Can't Wike overlooked certain things?

Let me stop here before I write another.

Ok

Fasindo:














You can't be in APC nd still have ur brain in tact.


Hope Uzodinma the supreme court governor of Imo state that should focus on how to get more anti retroviral drugs is busy attacking PDP for APC misdemeanor.

Wike is truly wicked.

Wike too is a Supreme Court made Governor and in trying to make him Governor the Supreme Court killed the card reader which would have solved most of our electoral problems. Besides the same Justice Kudirat Kekerekun that wrote the lead judgment of Uzodinma also wrote the main judgement in WIKE'S case. So who is the pot now calling the kettle black?
