Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has restated its stands amid the crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party.

Wike reiterated on Wednesday that he would never accept northern dominance in the leadership of the party while hosting PDP candidates and local government party chairmen from Cross Rivers who paid him a courtesy visit at his residence in Port Harcourt, where he donated 25 buses to support their campaigns.    

Wike rejected the current formation of the party’s where the National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu; Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar; and Director General of the Presidential Campaign, Aminu Tambuwal; are all from the northern part of the country.

According to him, no one can convince him to drop his advocacy for internal democracy in the party.

They appreciated Wike for being a strong support to them since their Governor, Ben Ayade dumped the PDP for the All Progressives Congress.

Wike however promised to support the Cross River PDP, and urged the candidates to go all out to win the elections.
