Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has said the victory of Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the Supreme Court was God’s saving help for Rivers State.
Wike stated this while speaking at an interdenominational
thanksgiving service at the Ecumenical Centre in Port Harcourt.
“God saved PDP because of Rivers State. We are the only
state without Plan B,” he said.
Similarly, Bayelsa State governor, Mr. Seriake Dickson has
urged Senator Modu Sheriff to respect the Supreme Court judgment and support
the leadership of Makarfi.
“I call on Senator Sheriff and his supporters and all
contending interests in our great party, PDP, to respect the verdict of the
Supreme Court as the final arbiter.
“I urge all contending interests in the PDP to embrace peace
and genuine reconciliation and support the Senator Makarfi-led Caretaker
Committee of our party with a view to organising an all- inclusive National
Unity Convention.
“Without such support, genuine reconciliation cannot take
place. Without such support, the caretaker committee will have a herculean task
organising an acceptable convention and without genuine reconciliation, the
party cannot move forward,” Dickson said.
