| Rivers APC during the rally |
Reports have emerged from the All Progressives Congress, Rivers state chapter after a party chieftain and immediate past commissioner of land and survey in the state Ezemonye Ezekiel allegedly blamed President Muhammadu Buhari for the continual staying of the present Governor of the state, Nyesom Wike in office.
He allegedly told reporters that president Buhari has not been decisive enough as they thought.
“After we spent over 30bn on his elections, he has abandoned us, gave us ordinary Minister of Transport and now we still do not have the Governor in office”.
The statement was said to have been made at the rally held to mourn those members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, that died during the last general elections.
When contacted on phone, he denied having said that claiming that the money spent on the elections cannot be disclosed to the public as we all know it is more than what the law speculated.
He also added that if the press needed information on how much money was spent on the elections from the state chapter of the party, they can as well contact the party directly and not him.
Efforts to get the party chapter’s official stance have proved abortive ever since but our correspondent is still monitoring the situation in the state.
It is no be noted that the All Progressives Congress had earlier organized a rally to mourn those whose lives were lost. The rally was well attended by party chieftains in the state.
