Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has challenged PDP
members in Abuja to show what they have done to woo members of other parties to
the PDP.
Wike alleged that some of the leaders of the Peoples
Democratic Party were merely house boys in Abuja and are known to follow
leaders of the party around.
The Governor made the claims on Tuesday during the
commissioning of the sand-filled area in Ogbum nu Abali, Port Harcourt city
local government of Rivers State.
The Governor is alleged to be referring to members of the
party in Rivers State who are loyalists to the presidential candidate of the
PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
He said, “as people who want the party or your own candidate
to win an election, what role are you playing in your state to make sure your
party wins the election?
“How many people have you been able to galvanize and
mobilize to leave the other parties and join your party to show that you’re
committed and ready to make your party win the election?
“It’s not to go to Abuja and say all kinds of things. Come
home and mobilize and let us see the capacity that you have. That’s what
politics is all about, it is not following people up and down.
“Anywhere any true Rivers man is, you must show that you’re
important and have something to offer.
“Don’t go and begin to do as a house boy. We are not known
to be House boys.
The Governor also challenged leaders of the PDP in other
states to deliver their own states to the party when the election comes and not
depend on votes from Rivers State.
