Rivers APC handed to Wike to spite Amaechi, party chieftain alleges

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has condemned the dissolution of the executives of the party in Rivers State.

He also alleged that the APC leadership is plotting to hand over the party in Rivers to Wike just to spite Amaechi.

The National Working Committee of the APC had on Friday inaugurated members of the caretaker committee of the Rivers State chapter of the party two days after the excos were dissolved

Eze, in a statement on Saturday, alleged that the dissolution was part of a plot to embarrass former Rivers governor, Chibuike Amaechi.

He noted that President Bola Tinubu and the party's National Chairman, Umar Ganduje, plotted the scheme to hand over the state chapter of the party to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and write off Amaechi and his team.

He reminded those he called the cabal to be wary of Wike, who he described as a political chameleon.

“I am happy to note that both Tinubu and Ganduje have suffered and tasted the bitter pills of Wike in most of his attempts to decimate the party and to handover the party structure to him and his agents is nothing but sheer wickedness and unreasonableness because it will definitely backfire.

“It is however unfortunate that all the appointments so far made by Tinubu and his government have only favoured Wike, who fought Rivers APC to a standstill with the resource of the state,” he said.
