Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has accused the Federal Government of working to kill the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The governor spoke yesterday at the Government House , Port Harcourt when he granted audience to the leadership of Non -Indigenes Without Borders chaired by Hon Emeka Onowu.
He said: “We have a sad situation where everything is being done at the federal level to kill the PDP . However, in the end, it is their own political party that will die.”
The governor expressed dissatisfaction with the repeated plots to rig the forthcoming rerun elections in Rivers State. He noted that nobody would be allowed to steal the mandate of Rivers people, no matter the deployment of pliant security agencies .
“They are repeatedly shifting the date of the rerun elections, so that they can have a convenient time to rig. Nobody should be scared of their plan to use DSS and police to rig the rerun elections
” The policeman that is carrying gun, how many people can he kill? In Turkey where they resisted the Army, are they not human beings ? Nobody will circumvent the mandate of the Rivers people,” Wike said .
He said as an opposition state, the people of Rivers State are aware that will have battles for survival from those who control the federal level.
