Prince Ned Nwoko has lambasted Rivers State Governor, Nyesom
Wike, describing him as a nuisance to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Nwoko, PDP Delta North senatorial candidate for the 2023
elections, made the remark on Monday at the Asaba airport on his way from
Abuja. According to him, the Rivers State governor has done a lot of damage to
the party and should be shown the way out.
“Wike is a nuisance, quote me anywhere. If I were [in] the
leadership of the party, I would have acted differently. I would have done
things differently. He has done a lot of damage to the PDP and I don’t know
what they are waiting for to show him the way out,” he said.
He further remarked that should he win the election, his
performance in the Senate will be better than that of the House of
Representatives, noting that a good lawmaker gets things done through effective
lobbying.
“As a senator, I will be representing Nigeria; whether you
are in PDP, APC or Labour Party, it doesn’t make any difference to me. If you
look at the bills I sponsored when I was in the House of Representatives, it
was all about the people. It was about the minimum wage, the disability
allowance and many others like that,” he said.
Speaking further, he said. “The Benin-Asaba Road needs to be
resurfaced, we also need service stations along the way.”
Nwoko avowed that he would push for more dams to be built to
check the menace of floods.
“We need more dams and we need to dredge the River Niger. We need to also check gas flaring in Nigeria. I am prepared,” he asserted.
