“Wike’s Quest For Power Will Destroy PDP In Rivers State”-NDRO




The Niger Delta Renaissance Organisation has told the National Leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP that the desperation for power by the Hon. Minister of State Barr. Nyesom Wike will destroy the Party in Rivers state if not checked. The group said the party must act fast to checkmate the violence which the camp of the minister is unleashing on party faithful in the state.
The statement signed by the Director of mobilization NDRO Rivers Chapter, Com. Israel Obodo said Rivers State has overgrown the politics of violence which the camp of the minister is plunging the party into as evident in the show of shame at Legacy House, Abuja. The group said Rivers people are highly respected in the country as gentlemen and wondered why the quest for power by an individual should hold the state to ransom. The group said “it is regrettable that other states came and concluded their reconciliation exercise peacefully while Rivers State which should have been in the forefront of setting a good example as a leading South South state ended up embarrassing the state and giving room for the All Progressive Congress APC in the state to make mockery of our great party”
The group said the coming primaries of the PDP should not be seen as a do or die affair. It said Wike’s camp must come off the assumption that anybody against his ambition is automatically an opposition member or traitor. The organization said Wike should be grateful because as the highest beneficiary of the party in the state he holds it as a duty to see that the party does not disintegrate due to his overbearing hunger for power.
The group commended the National Leadership of the PDP over its directive to state party chairmen warning against undue favouritism to a particular candidate. The group describes the statement as a welcome development considering the way and manner the PDP Executives in the state have glaringly shown their prejudice towards Wike. “It is unfortunate that the party leadership in Rivers State has shown glaring favouritism to Barr Nyesom  Wike in an election where all aspirants should be given a level playing ground as directed by the National leadership of the party. This is why the directive is welcome and commendable” the group said.
The NDRO also expressed its confidence in President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan’s Transformation agenda as a road map to sustainable development in the country. It also pledged its loyalty to the PDP while  stressing that it will never go back on its stance for a riverine governor in Rivers state come 2015.

Sen. Magnus Abe's Courageous Fight For Rivers Brick House

Ab e' Today Rivers people especially majority of faithful of the All Progressives Congress APC defied the heavy down pour in Port Harcourt to show solidarity for Sen. Magnus Abe and the direct primaries in the state which has been kicked against by the Rotimi Amaechi faction of the party in the state. This support which was massive and highly successful  buttressed the position of the over 148,000 people that caste  their votes on the direct primaries which held in the state on the 30th of September 2018. Rivers people on that   fateful day showed that they wanted the right man for the job in defiance of the foisting of an unknown candidate chosen from the blues to fly the flag of the party. The solidarity which the people of the state and APC members showed for the Ogoni born Senator has to be respected by the party unlike what is happening today where the party seems to be favouring the emergence of Tonye Cole all in the bid to please the former governor of t...
