Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers State, has declared his intention to stick with the PDP (PDP).
In response to requests for him to leave the party due to the ongoing issue, the governor announced his stance on Thursday.
Wike addressed at a PDP stakeholder gathering in the state that took place at the Government House in Port Harcourt.
“We will do the fight in the party. We are not like them, when in 2014 they walked out from Eagle Square. They’ve forgotten. They walked out and joined APC.
The Rivers helmsman claimed that those who flee from battle are weak individuals, and he would not do so.
The governor pointed out that zoning is required for party posts and elective positions in the party constitution.
“You have taken the presidential candidate, you have taken party chairman, you have also taken the DG of the campaign. We are talking about party politics.”
According to Wike, decisions are taken by the campaign director general, the party chairman, and the presidential candidate.
“You can put pressure on the BoT chairman to resign when his tenure hasn’t come to an end. But you cannot put pressure on the chairman to resign”, he added.
