Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to discountenance what it considers as “subliminal antics by meddlesome interlopers” to force former Governor Nyesom Wike to hijack the party in the state.
“We wish to clear the air that Wike did not deliver any value to our dear Rivers State APC,” the party said. In an open letter to Tinubu, the party called on the President to reject Wike’s overtures to stealthily foist himself on it and take control of its structures in the state.
In the letter signed by its Publicity Secretary, Comrade Darlington Nwauju, the party warned Tinubu to be wary of Wike and his cohorts, saying the former governor’s claims of working for the party would only undermine loyal and dedicated APC members and other stakeholders.
Nwauju recalled that the former governor had in the past meted unquantifiable brutality to members and families of APC in Rivers State with countless casualties.
The chapter urged Tinubu “as a consistent party man who built your ideals of party growth and sustainability on practical people-oriented philosophy, and reward-for-stewardship to resist Wike because he has no political ideology.”
