The All Progressives Congress has alleged that the Rivers State
Governor, Nyesom Wike, has become the sole administrator of the
opposition Peoples Democratic Party.

It said it was now obvious that the governor had become the
party’s defacto National Chairman, spokesperson and sole
administrator, who determines what happens in the PDP.

The APC said this in a statement signed by the acting National
Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena, in Abuja on Sunday.

He alleged that since Nigerians rejected the PDP which ruled the
nation for 16 years, it had become obvious that there was nothing
democratic about PDP’s policies and practices.

“As events has shown, it is a misnomer to call the party,
Peoples Democratic Party as there is nothing democratic about its
policies and practices.

“The PDP to all intents and purposes has become the theatre of
the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike. Since assuming office after
the disputed 2015 Rivers Governorship election, Wike has assumed
the role of de facto PDP National Chairman, sole administrator,
spokesman, organising secretary and BoT Chairman.

“Recall Governor Wike’s imposition of an erstwhile PDP National
Chairman without a formal convention and the leaked telephone
conversation of Governor Wike (allegedly) threatening to kill INEC
officials he had paid to rig the rivers rerun election in favour of
the PDP.” Nabena said.

The APC also alleged that the governor recently threatened to
teach the PDP presidential aspirants, including the Senate
President, Bukola Saraki, the APC spokesman said.
