Rivers Gov’t Reapproves venue For Atiku’s Campaign

Rivers State government says it has again approved for the National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party the use of the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in the state to host its presidential campaign rally.

The State Government had on January 31 withdrawn the initial approval of February 11 on the grounds that credible intelligence and recent development showed that the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation is working in collaboration with the All Progressives Congress in Rivers.

However, speaking the state PDP Campaign rally in the Ogu/Bolo Local Government Area on Tuesday, Governor Nyesom Wike said the government reapproved the use of the venue after pleas by many personalities.

The governor also spoke on the crisis in the PDP, even as he faulted the comment by the National Chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu that a member of the G5 visited him.

Wike said the claim was false as no member of the group of five PDP governors advocating for the Southern Chairmanship of the party will visit Ayu.

He said nobody can blackmail the G5 governors to drop the political advocacy, because it is a fight they must surely win.

Wike also insisted that no man can chase them away from the party they built.
