Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has expressed his support for the suspension of Iyorchia Ayu, the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Ayu was suspended by his ward level in Benue State over anti-party activities.
Wike stated that Ayu’s suspension was due to members’ anger over the party’s poor performance in the February 25 and March 18 general elections.
He added that Ayu’s refusal to resign from the chairmanship position contributed to the party’s defeat. Wike also accused Ayu of trading the party’s victory for his own interests.
He emphasized the need for the party to be led by individuals who have made significant political contributions.
