The former Rivers State Governor threatened to cause a political crisis in the states of any Peoples Democratic Party governor who tried to interfere in the party’s affairs in the South-South state.
The PDP governors, who met in Taraba State on August 23, weighed in on the crisis rocking the party in the state and reiterated their support for Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
The PDP Governors’ Forum, in a communiqué read by its Chairman and Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, called for a review of the party congress outcome to restore Fubara’s leadership role in the state.
Speaking at the PDP secretariat in Port Harcourt, the state capital, during the party’s state congress, Wike urged the PDP governors to stay clear of the party’s affairs in Rivers.
The Rivers PDP has been in crisis following the fallout between Wike and his predecessor, who was absent at the congress.
In attendance alongside the minister were some serving and past lawmakers at both federal and state levels, former council chairmen, and other party faithful.
