Nigeria’s Opposition Lawmakers Coalition has said the now suspended governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, should not be blamed if he eventually joins the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) because his party, the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP), had betrayed him.

The lawmakers, in their reaction to the rumours making the rounds that Fubara was planning to join APC, especially with his recent visit President Bola Tinubu at his Lagos residence, claimed the PDP had giving its structures to a serving minister in the governing party.

In a statement by their spokesperson, Hon. Ikenga Ugochinyere, the opposition lawmakers said also said the PDP supported the lawmakers who decamped to the APC against the governor and wanted to impeach him but the party did little or nothing to protect Fubara as its leadership was hobnobbing with the FCT Minister Nyesom Wike.

The lawmakers maintained that since the declaration of a state of emergency on Rivers State and the suspension of Fubara from office, the PDP had not taken concrete steps to help the suspended governor in his predicament apart from mere press statements.

“There are rumours making the rounds that Siminalayi Fubara who had been suspended from office as Rivers State Governor after the declaration of state of emergency in the state is planning to defect from the PDP to the APC, especially with his recent visit to President Bola Tinubu in Lagos.

“Well, if Governor Fubara eventually joins the APC, he should not be blamed but his party, the PDP betrayed him. It will not be his fault but that of PDP, which gave the former governor, Nyseom Wike, a serving minister in the APC government, the party’s structure.

“PDP equally supported the lawmakers who decamped to the APC against the governor, and wanted to impeach him but his party did little or nothing to protect Fubara as its leadership was busy hobnobbing with Wike. Even after his suspension, what did PDP do to help Fubara apart from issuing mere statement(s) to condemn the president’s action in the afternoon and support it in the night,” Ugochinyere stated.
