Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike on Monday, declared that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, will win the July 30, 2016 rerun election in the state despite the heavy presence of the military men in the state.
Wike described Rivers as a traditional PDP state.
The governor made the declaration when he played host to leadership of the state party at the Government House, Port Harcourt, the state capital.
He said, “Rivers State is a traditional PDP state. If they like, let them bring the American Marines or the American Navy Seals, the PDP will win in Rivers State.
“I hear they are all in Abuja. All we want is free and fair elections. We are ready for the elections. They should not do the elections to massage the ego of an individual.
“You don’t dash mandate. You don’t allocate mandate. The people must be allowed to choose who they will give their mandate.
“We are willing to support INEC and all security agencies to conduct peaceful elections. The APC leaders, who claimed that there were no elections, are today asking the tribunals to declare them winners of the elections.”
