APC Declares 7days Fasting For Wike To Contest as a Governor

Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has declared seven days of fasting and prayers for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state to elect the supervising minister of education, Nyesom Wike, as its gubernatorial flag bearer for the 2015 elections. The state APC in a statement by the press secretary to the interim state chairman of the party, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, said the emergence of Wike will give the APC the opportunity to expose the PDP as undemocratic institution that does not have the interest of the people of Rivers at heart. The program will commence, according to the statement, on 25th March, 2014 and will end on 1st April, 2014 at the APC state secretariat, during the normal period of the weekly prayer and thanksgiving of APC Women. “We should not forget so soon that PDP is a party whose hatred for Rivers State is legendary and anything that is lawful and spiritual to stop such an undemocratic party from Brick House is an effort in the right direction and allowing an unsellable candidate like Chief Wike as the party’s flag-bearer is one of the ploys we will exploit as a party to achieve this,” the party said. The APC said the PDP is behind the dwindling of the state’s funds when it ceded Soku oil wells to Bayelsa and others to Abia State. “It has also ensured that the state lacks any sign of Federal Government presence by way of projects, besides promoting insecurity in the state. Anything that would contribute to see to the total annihilation of such an evil party from Rivers State is a welcome development and one of the quickest ways to ensure the quick death of the party in the State is to allow Chief Wike to clinch the party’s ticket for the 2015 guber election,” the APC said. It added, “The fact remains that Chief Wike, who has spearheaded PDP-led Federal Government’s onslaught against Rivers State, has lost political value in the State. Most of the people that made him tick politically have since deserted him to APC while some hungry loafers are massaging his ego just to enable them have a meal at his expense. “Apart from Wike’s political baggage, another major factor counting against him is that he comes from the Ikwerre axis where the current Governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, also comes from,” it said.
