*Amaechi jittering, planning to return to PDP, says Wike
The Rivers State Chapter of The All Progressives Congress (APC) has referred to the statement made by the Supervising Minister of Education, Chief Nyesom Wike, as amusing and unnecessary ranting.
Wike who made the speech at the Krisdera Stadium, Omoku, headquarters of Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area in the Orashi Reigion of Rivers State during the first anniversary of the appointment of Chief Feliz Obuah as the undertaker-Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said that “the Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, and his supporters are jittery and afraid, making efforts to return to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the All Progressives Congress (APC)”
Reacting to the statement, Leaders of the APC expressed disappointment that such statement, which it referred as “lie from the pit of hell” was made by a Federal Minister, who according to the party, is a sign of desperation to raise the morale of his fast depleting followers in the Rivers PDP.
It added “If we may ask, what will make Governor Amaechi and APC in Rivers State to be jittery and afraid? Afraid of PDP that is in disarray and cursed with a rudderless leadership without any sound vision? Afraid of a party whose founding fathers are leaving in droves and a party that has virtually ceased to function in Rivers State? This is nothing but the ranting of a drowning man. We would ordinarily not have bothered to respond to Wike if not for the need to put the records straight.
“It is indeed ridiculous for Wike to allege that Governor Amaechi and other APC leaders in the State are planning to rejoin PDP through the backdoor. What he does not understand is that Gov. Amaechi has left PDP for good, without any intention of returning to the sinking ship which PDP has become as of today.
APC accused Wike of running down Nigeria Educational system, saying that he supervised and ensured that Federal Polytechnics and Colleges of Education are permanently closed until he leaves office.
It said ” Wike should continue with his vision and mission, which is to run down Nigeria’s educational system. It has gone on record that he supervised and ensured that Federal Polytechnics and Colleges of Education are permanently closed pending when he leaves office as the Supervising Minister of Education. His plot to render our University system comatose failed after he ensured that the Universities were closed for six months. The people of Rivers State are wise enough not to allow such a failed politician and administrator to govern the State even for one second to avoid him destroying all the enviable legacies of Governor Amaechi.
“Wike must be suffering from a very severe high fever for him to be dreaming of installing a drowning PDP as the ruling party in Rivers State in 2015. We advise him to urgently visit Prof Kesley Harrison Specialist Hospital Diobu, Port Harcourt, for proper medical attention before his case becomes irredeemable.
The party reminded Nigerians that Rivers State belong to APC and cannot be changed.
It said “Rivers State is an APC State and a million Wikes cannot change that fact. We are proud of the feats of Governor Amaechi and we thank God that he has today become a political institution whose sandals Wike is unfit to untie.
APC Hits Wike, says he runs down Nigeria Educational system
