POLITICS: Nyesom Wike threatens to dump PDP if Sheriff wins at Supreme Court

Current report reaching us revealed that the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, on Friday vowed not to work under the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, National Chairman, Ali Modu Sheriff should the Supreme Court affirm him, Sheriff, as the leader of the party.


Featuring on Channels Television, the Rivers Governor stressed that working under Sheriff’s leadership “is against my belief and
tradition.”

Wike also hinted on dumping the party should the
apex court ruling favour the Sheriff’s faction.

He said,“Why we are following up this issue is for the stance of the law on certain things to be stated properly.

“It is very, very unlikely for me to be under Sheriff if the supreme court rules he is the party chairman. I can’t say if I will leave but of course I have my choice.

“There are things you can’t go on with, they’re certainly wrong.

“Have you seen the characters around Sheriff? Do the party have any clear roadmap with such person? And then you want me to go and work under such person? It is against my belief. It is even against the tradition, no I can’t do that.”
