Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has described Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the only hope for Nigeria in this trying time.

 

 

Wike made this known in his address during the Thanksgiving Service held at Ecumenical Centre, Port Harcourt on Sunday to celebrate Supreme Court Judgement.

 

 

He said Rivers state chapter of PDP organized the Thanksgiving Service because the state party was at forefront during the 14 months legal battle for soul of the party.

 

 

His words: “we thank God Almighty for giving our great party victory at the Supreme Court on Wednesday.

Many people may ask why PDP Rivers state is celebrating, we have a lot of reasons to celebrate.  Rivers state was in the forefront during the crisis.

 

 

“Many other states has alternative but we don’t have any alternative. We don’t believe in forming other political party because we know God will give us victory.

 

 

“When the crisis started, many people abused us because we brought Ali Modu Sheriff to head the party. We thank God for giving us wisdom to discover our mistake on time. The party was heading towards doom, if not for the decision we took at the National Convention in Port Harcourt.

 

 

“Wike commended Supreme Court for saving and strengthen our democracy.

 

 

“If the judgement was contrary, democracy in the Nigeria would have been doom. All Progressives Congress wants one party system. They don’t want opposition. APC jubilated when a Federal High Court in Lagos recognized Sheriff as authentic PDP National Chairman early this year.”

 

 

He expressed further that the declaration of Senator Ahmed Makarfi as Authentic National Chairman of PDP makes the rebirth of the party.

 

 

He charged all members of the party across the country to commence mobilization ahead of 2019 general elections.

 

 

Wike expressed optimism that the leading opposition will bounce back and takeover federal government in 2019.

 

 

He noted: “PDP is the only party with members in every ward across the country. See reactions of Nigerians on pages of Newspapers. They are interested in what is happening in our great party”.
