Nyesom Wike the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory has dared the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors’ Forum, to handover the structure of the party in Rivers State to Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
The PDP Governors’ Forum had during their recent meeting in Jalingo, the Taraba State capital, declared support for Fubara, who has been having a running political battle with the minister.
But, addressing PDP stakeholders during the party’s state congress in Port Harcourt yesterday, Wike threatened to cause crisis in the respective states of the governors.
He said: “Let me assure you, not while we live will anybody take away the PDP structure from us. Let me tell you people; I hear that there are some governors who said they will take away the structure and give to somebody. I pity those governors because I will put fire in their states.
“When God has given you peace, you said you don’t want peace; whatever you see, you take.”
Wike urged members of the party in the state to work towards taking control of the state government in 2027.
The minister said: “Yes, we have done our own part by electing a government in the state. If the government said it does not want you, you don’t kill yourself; will you run away from the party? We are party members and we have taken over the party.
“We did it; God did it in 2023. The same God will allow us, support us in 2027. Let nobody be intimated.”
