The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied rumors that it invited former governor Nyesom Wike to join and lead the party.
In a statement, the party’s publicity secretary in the state, Darlington Nwauju, dismissed the reports as “preposterous” and “sponsored stories.”
“The attention of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State has been drawn to calls by impostors and sponsored amorphous groupings acting as fronts for the immediate past Governor of Rivers State, Mr Nyesom Wike, that APC in Rivers State is calling on him (Mr Wike) to join the same party he had characterised as suffering from cancer,” it read.
“Nothing can be more preposterous than this kite being flown by minions of Wike working hard to justify their pay cheque.
“We wish to unequivocally dismiss any such rumour or sponsored story planted in any medium that Rivers State APC had at any forum invited Mr Wike to join our party none the least calling on Wike to take over leadership of a party he never campaigned for.”
The party challenged anyone to provide evidence of Wike openly campaigning for the APC and accused him of unleashing terror on its members during his time in office.
“The terror unleashed on our party members in the course of his eight years maximum rulership alone is enough evidence to confirm that Wike has no business with Rivers State APC. Asking him to come and take over is asking an enemy to come and finish off his victims,” the statement alleged.
“We are aware of his schemes to escape justice over the looting of the collective patrimony of Rivers people which is the major reason for his romancing top APC members.
“For those who may be suffering from amnesia, a none APC member cannot be cheerleader for the entry of Wike into APC. Nobody can decree his membership of a political party through radio or newspaper publications. All vexatious attempts at distracting our party in Rivers State will keep failing.”
The party also emphasized that it has a legally recognized state office and a standard procedure for convening meetings based on its constitution.
It warned against using the party’s name for personal gain and affirmed its support for the policies and programs of the Federal Government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
