If I leave PDP today it cannot win the election – Wike

Governor of Rivers state, Nyesom Wike has said that the People’s Democratic party, PDP cannot win the 2023 presidential election without his input.

He said he and four other governors play an important role in PDP; hence the party can’t win elections without them.

The Governor made the declaration during a media chat in Port Harcourt, the state capital, on Friday.

Wike said this following the crisis rocking the party. Wike, Samuel Ortom of Benue State, Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, have been calling for the removal of Iyorchia Ayu as PDP’s National Chairman.

“If I leave the party today, the PDP cannot win the election. If the five PDP governors say they are leaving today, we are not just ordinary governors, we are very committed and strong, he said

“There is nobody that wants to win an election and still continue the way they are doing. I have supported many states financially to win elections in the past, including Plateau, Ondo, and Cross Rivers and they cannot deny it
