Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, dares People’s Democratic Party (PDP), National Chairman to stop any of the party’s candidates from contesting the 2023 general election

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, is daring the National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Iyorchia Ayu, to stop any of the party’s candidates from contesting the 2023 general election.

Wike, who gave the challenge while speaking with newsmen at his private residence in Port Harcourt, was reacting to a statement credited to Ayu, where he said he would have stopped Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, from contesting a senatorial seat.

He stated that nobody has called for Ayu’s sack, saying that the demand is that the National Chairman should fulfil the promise he made before the party’s presidential primary.
