On Monday, Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), received a directive from Emeka Beke, the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) chapter that was disbanded in Rivers State, to permit Governor Sim Fubara to carry out his official responsibilities.
Beke bemoaned the fact that the state’s continuous crises is causing investors to flee the state on a daily basis.
Beke warned Wike not to ruin the APC the way he destroyed the Peoples Democratic Party, or PDP, during his appearance on the Arise TV Morning Show.
Beke asserts: “Fubara has the right to govern Rivers State; Wike ought to let him fulfil the mandate that the people of Rivers have given him.”
“There is a procedure for state legislators who said they have joined the party; you begin at your unit if you wish to join a party. Do people no longer follow procedures because we are living in anarchy?
“They should quit lying to people and stop wanting to be in charge of everything. You proceed to your state, ward, and unit. You cannot simply declare that you are switching from the PDP to the APC.
“Sim Fubara is the governor of Rivers State; let him hold office and promote peace.” In Wike’s final eight years in office, the state saw far too many problems. In eight years, is this what we’re going to return to?
Since Fubara is the governor, they ought to let him do his job. Investors are fleeing the state on a daily basis due to various crises; the issue is not one of party but rather governance.
“He needs to focus on his task in Abuja and give Rivers some peace; he’s already destroyed the PDP; now he wants to destroy the APC?”
