Former Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has been exposed by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state.

A statement by the Rivers State APC Publicity Secretary, Darlington Nwajulu said:

“The formation and growth of the APC in Rivers State took the efforts of several loyal members, who mostly lost their lives in the struggle to ensure a solid party structure in the state.”

“Our growth from 2015 to 2019 was 23.8 per cent, closing the huge gap of 2015 presidential election. Then the 2023 presidential election came in with additional 80,881 votes in favour of the APC in Rivers State.”

“The question is, where is the helping hand of former Governor Wike? Can he claim to have helped Rivers APC with only 80,881 votes, when our growth showed organic growth since 2019?”

“Can a non-party man take over a national ruling party in a state, simply because they claim to have helped the national party in his state with just 80,881 votes when such claims couldn’t be substantiated with empirical data?”

“There is evidence to prove that Wike did not work for the APC. When he found out that his political career was gone, he decided to pitch his tent with APC, just to have a comfort zone to rob the APC in Rivers State.”
