The Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP says it’s shocked that despite Amaechi’s earlier needless outburst, he has gone ahead to endorse a well known cultist as the governorship flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
The PDP in a statement signed by Jerry Needam, Special Adviser on Media to the State Chairman, Bro Felix Obuah expressed this against the allegation of plotting to elect cultists to take over the reins of governance in the State next year by Gov Amaechi.
According to the PDP, it’s now clear why Amaechi decided to cry wolf when there was no need for such.
“Knowing the caliber of names paraded for screening by our party to ensure we don’t leave anything to chance, we shuddered when Amaechi came up with that image smearing campaign. We can now understand he only wanted to pre-empt us knowing full well that he was going to endorse Dakuku Peterside, a well known cultist as the APC consensus candidate”, the PDP declared.
The PDP insists all these antics are well known and cannot deter it from pursuing with vigor the important need of saving the Rivers people from his police regime under the control of the self-seeking cabal of which he is the leader.
May we state it for the umpteen time that the PDP, as a responsible party will not tow the path of Amaechi and his APC, and cannot contemplate fielding a cultist on our platform as he has done.
We wish to reassure the good people of Rivers that whatever antics he employs, it will amount to futility as the PDP has grown more than he can stop, the party declared.
