Nyesom Wike suggested that there would be an exodus of PDP members from the main opposition party if he dumped the party.
The former Rivers governor stated this at the PDP secretariat in Port Harcourt, during the party’s state congress on Saturday, August 31, Premium Times reports.
“If today I say I will move to another party, it will be a tsunami but we have said we are going to remain where we are.” Wike also threatened to “put fire” in PDP-governed states if their governors do not stay clear of the party’s affairs in Rivers.
The minister boasted that nobody could take over the PDP structure in Rivers from him and his allies who currently controlled the party.
“Let me assure all of you, not when we live will anybody take away the structure of the PDP from us. But let me tell people, I hear some governors say they will take over the structure and give it back to somebody.”
The PDP in Rivers state has been torn apart into two factions following the political feud between Wike and his successor, Governor Sim Fubara.
Wike is in total control of the party structure in the state while Governor Fubara controls the state government.
