Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has been lambasted by Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State.

Umahi said; “I refused to join issues with Wike because he is my friend. But Wike must know that he is a dictator.”

“Wike must know that one person cannot be called a crowd. Wike must know that a lot of governors in PDP are not very happy with him. He remote-controls the party.”

“Wike said that I made my brother the vice-chairman. I fund the PDP south-east from A to Z. And he has forgotten that he singlehandedly made Secondus the (PDP) chairman. He has forgotten that he wanted to impose one of his own as minority leader of the house.”

“There is nothing that happens in PDP without his authorisation. He once said that PDP national working committee members are beggars and bribe takers. I have asked him that let’s not take on ourselves or else it will be very dangerous.”

“So, let’s us face the party. The party does not belong to him. And this is by no means personal, and he is demonstrating the dictatorial tendencies in him by taking on me, a fellow governor. And that is very shameful.”

“APC does more consultation. Anybody can contravene this that PDP working committee is being remote-controlled and that is the truth and it is very dangerous and all the governors know that.”

“Wike cannot stay in his state and will be remote-controlling what happens in other states. Unless that changes, you will see a lot of governors leaving the party.”
