APC BoT member, about hundred others dump Amaechi, other parties to join Wike
Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike has received no fewer than 90 defectors from the APC and ohter political parties in the state, confirming his claim he holds the ace in Rivers.
Among the over 90 defectors were a member of the Board of Trustees of the APC, Sam Jaja, from Opobo/Nkoro LGA, former Commissioner for Sports, Fred Igwe, from Eleme LGA, and former Commissioner for Transport, George Tolofari, among others.
While receiving them at the popular Isaac Boro Park on Saturday, Wike described the APC defectors and others as the pillars who did the underground work in their former parties, and he encouraged them to make the PDP win the forthcoming election.
The State Chairman of the PDP, Amb. Desmond Akawor, said the APC is already dead in the state..
Many had speculated the former strongman of the state and APC stalwart Rotimi Amaechi may also cut out, seeing how his presidential candidate Bola Tinubu is dicing with Wike who has been at war with his party.
