Battleline drawn as PDP gives Wike final warning

Published by

The main opposition party Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has given River State Governor Nyesom Wike a final warning.

In a statement earlier, Governor Wike, who had demanded the resignation of the PDP national Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, as a condition to support Atiku in the February election, had, on several occasions, tackled the former vice president.

On Monday, Wike, while reacting to the endorsement of the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, by Atiku’s former principal, Olusegun Obasanjo, mocked Atiku, saying something must be wrong.

Reacting, PDP, in a statement issued and signed by the spokesperson and Director Public Affairs PDP Presidential Campaign Management Committee, Senator Dino Melaye, asked Wike to be ashamed of himself.

The statement reads, “Wike should be ashamed that he has constantly solicited the attention of Atiku by his continuous disrespect and unwarranted insult of a man who did nothing to you’’.

“I advise him to support whoever he wishes to support, as we will no longer tolerate his insolent tendencies. The question is, is there something wrong with Wike that Amaechi did not hand over to him?

“Why will Prince Uche Secondus, Rt Hon. Austin Okpara, Sen. Lee Meaba, Chief Abiye Sikibo, Sen George Sekibo, Hon. Chinyere Igwe, etc., leave him unceremoniously for Atiku. Something is definitely wrong somewhere”.
