Governor Nyesom Wike and People democratic party board of trustees are at logger heads as the Rivers State governor criticizes them on their decision to mandate the party’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, to resign after the 2023 general elections.
According to the Daily post,
Wike accused the party’s National Chairman of failing to inform the PDP National Working Committee, NWC, of the N1.1 billion he received on behalf of the party.
The governor speaking at the international wing of the Port Harcourt International Airport, Omagwa, on arrival from a brief trip to Spain questioned the decision of the BoT while also accusing the party’s National Chairman of failing to inform the PDP National Working Committee, NWC, of the N1.1 billion he received on behalf of the party.
He also said: “Luckily for me, Ayu has now mentioned that he went to the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, the Waziri of Adamawa where they discussed the issues of borrowing.
“Now, the question is, when you talk about borrowing, who approves borrowing? You must go to the NWC to say you want to borrow money.
“I challenge him to bring the records where NWC approved that the party should go and borrow N1 billion. What is the collateral?”
Wike took a swipe at the PDP national chairman for the kind of responses he gave over the allegations levelled against him, saying Ayu stands indicted except proven otherwise.
