PDP Group Challenges Wike
Share on WhatsAppShare on FacebookShare on XTelegram

A pro-Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) organisation on the platform of Rivers State Democracy Sustainable Group (RSDSG) has challenged the Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, to give account of all his recent financial donations to his allies allegedly causing disunity in the main opposition party and beyond.

The group wondered if those giveaways of Rivers State’s resources were presented to the Rivers State House of Assembly and approved by the lawmakers as part of budgetary allocations.

In a statement signed yesterday in Abuja by its convener, Justin Chibuike, the group said from 2015 till date, Governor Wike has received trillions of Naira from Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), federal allocations, local and foreign interventions and sales of state government properties including the gas turbine former Governor Rotimi Amaechi acquired from Holland and Saipem; but has not spent one third of the resources.

The group, however, threatened that “If the Governor does not speak to Rivers’ people and hand over their properties back to the state, all these documents will be revealed including sales agreements of these properties both locally and internationally.”

According to the statement, “One may ponder on the ridiculous excesses of the governor in recent times against the party that has given him everything except being the presidential candidate of the party.

“The party in its wisdom settled for the former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar for their best interest but the Governor has gone rogue against the party and the presidential candidate.

“We have realised that the courage to fight an unknown battle has been fully funded by the purse of Rivers State. The Governor in his bid to service the loyalty of the characters masquerading as fighters for justice in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has resulted to throwing Rivers resources into the bellies of the fishes acting as militants in the PDP.

“Furthermore, the Governor of the state should explain to Rivers people if the monies that he doles out frequently to forces outside Rivers State are duly captured and approved by the Rivers State House of Assembly in the yearly budgets of the state.

“This is of importance because Rivers people have seen how the Governor went to Lagos State to endorse the APC Governor of the state against his party’s candidate and in so doing donated the sum of N300m to the National women conference organised by the Committee of Wives of Lagos State Officials (COWLSO) at the Eko Hotels and Suites.

“Also, we’ve seen in disgust how he attended the birthday party of his ally in Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu and donated the sum of N200m for no just cause. We’ve also seen recently the donation of 25 buses each to both Cross River and Benue states PDP.”

The group said Rivers people are tired and cannot continue in the charade of the governor in his utter wastage that has continually underdeveloped the state at a time when there is serious unemployment and no human capital development or empowerment to enable the youths create meaningful opportunities for themselves to grow the declining state GDP and beat the rising inflation in their state.
