The All Progressives Congress, APC, National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje has declared that his party would soon take over the leadership of Rivers State.
Ganduje said the Rivers State chapter of the APC would be
“rebuilt and repositioned” to establish a stronghold in the state.
He spoke when Dawari Ibietela George, the 2023 governorship
candidate of the Action Alliance, AA, defected to the APC.
He highlighted the party’s commitment to embracing diverse
interests while ensuring fairness.
The APC National Chairman described George as a “big fish”
and commended his political acumen, expressing confidence in his ability to
strengthen the party’s influence.
“Rivers State will be completely APC,” Ganduje declared
while underscoring his expectations from George’s return to the party.
He welcomed George and assured him that a robust structure
would be established to accommodate him and other returning members.
“You are now equal members with every other member of the
party. We are bent on widening democracy in the country,” Ganduje added.
Ganduje’s declaration comes amid the political struggle
between Governor Sim Fubara and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory,
FCT, Nyesom Wike.
There are claims that Wike was working with the embattled
former state chairman of the APC, Tony Okocha but Wike has denied it.
However, Okocha recently disclosed that Fubara would be
de-marketed ahead of the 2027 governorship election in the state.
