Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has expressed his disapproval of the recent suspension of party members loyal to the G-5 governors by the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Iyorchia Ayu.
Wike stated that the suspension will not benefit the party in the upcoming elections and that they will challenge all illegal decisions made by Ayu in court. He referred to Ayu’s actions as “total rubbish” and stated that they will not be intimidated or threatened by the suspension.
Wike emphasized that they believe in the rule of law and that the party must respect its constitution. He also mentioned that they are closely monitoring the situation and waiting for more announcements from Ayu.
The Ekiti State executive committee of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) was suspended by the Iyorchia Ayu-led National Working Committee (NWC).
