Rivers: PDP Youths Threaten Showdown Over Wike’s Guber Ambition — March 20, 2014 Some youths in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Rivers State have threatened to dump the party if its leadership fails to call the supervising minister of education, Chief Ezebunwo Nyesom Wike to order. The threat was sequel to the recent endorsement of Wike as the sole candidate of the PDP in the 2015 governorship election in the state by some influential members of the party. The youths, under the aegis of PDP Third Force Movement (PTFM), in a statement issued in Port Harcourt, alleged that the purported endorsement of the minister was orchestrated by the trio of the chairman of PDP in the state, Chief Felix Obuah, national vice chairman, Prince Uche Secondus and Wike himself. The statement, which was signed by PTFM secretary, Oprite Amachree, said, “This is highly condemnable by us. It makes a caricature of the principle of equity, justice, fairness and adequate representation practised by our highly esteemed party. “This act by the trio is aimed at sabotaging the presidential and gubernatorial successes of our great party in Rivers State.”
