Wike Welcomes Back Onyesoh, Other APC Decampees To PDP …Declares PDP Only Party In Rivers

Rivers State Governor, Chief  Nyesom Wike has stated that the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) is the only existing political party in the state because of its commitment to the rapid development of the state.
Speaking during the defection of former Commissioner for Education and Rivers State APC chieftain,  Chief Allwell Onyesoh with thousands of his supporters at the PDP Secretariat in Port Harcourt at the weekend,  Governor Wike said that Rivers people were happy  with the performance of the PDP over the years.
He said: “There is no other party in Rivers State.  PDP is the only party as far as Rivers State is concerned.
“Except people who do not see and those who tell lies in this state, the only party that means well for Rivers State is the PDP.”
Governor Wike said that the performance of the Rivers State PDP was beyond mere propaganda.
“This is the only party that keeps its promises.  When we say a thing, we go all out to carry it out on behalf of the people,” he said.
He expressed happiness that Rivers leaders were returning to the PDP to promote the interest of the state.
Governor Wike said that the PDP returnees will enjoy equal opportunities with older members of the party.
He said: “Everybody has  equal rights.  Luckily congresses will soon start and everyone will participate.  The new entrants will feel at home.  The more the merrier.”
In his remarks, Chief Allwell Onyesoh said his movement was not defection,  but an homecoming.
