RIVERS: No end to bickering as PDP, APC accuse each other of bad leadership

Ahead 2019 general elections, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has promised to shut the leaps of Governor Nyesom Wike and 60 other PDP leaders by exposing their run of bad leadership.

Wike, in return, has said that the poor leadership style of the dominant party in the country has left the federation more divided and impoverished than before.

APC accused Wike and his likes of still basking in the euphoria of the recent Supreme Court judgment that came their way, adding that at the right time, the opposition will no longer have the effrontery to speak to Nigerians but spend time answering the mountainous corruption charges against them in various courts.

APC position was made known by its Publicity Secretary, Mr. Chris Finebone in reaction to claims by Wike that Nigeria is currently divided because of APC’s bad leadership.

Wike had on Tuesday during the commencement of the reconstruction/rehabilitation of Abuloma, Fimie, Ozuboko and Amadi-Ama community roads in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, said:

“Nigeria is divided because of the APC leadership style. Wherever you go today in this country, there is one problem or the other. Is that how Nigerians want it? Certainly not! We need people who will promote peace through quality leadership.

“The change they said they are bringing is fake change. No person resident in Rivers State and sees what we are suffering from the APC Federal Government will ever support the APC.”

Wike then went on to say that Nigerians were deceived into voting for the APC but that in 2019, no Nigerian would listen the party fake promises.

In his reaction Finebone said, “The APC will list over 60 PDP leaders with their long list of alleged plundering of the nation’s resources that happened over the years, especially during the Jonathan presidency. Nigerians and the world will see these people for who they are.

“The present bravado you see in Wike and other PDP leaders will pale into insignificance as 2019 approaches. Their sins will seal their lips before Nigerians. They will be free, but unable to campaign. The wrong they have done will go after them.”

Rivers politics has largely been torn by power struggles between forces loyal to incumbent Governor Wike and present Minister of Transport and Aviation, Rotimi Amaechi.

    The two parties are insane! PDP killed Nigeria, APC is re-killing Nigeria. If any party is to put blames, it should be APGA blaming PDP and APC of bad leadership.

      Honestly, It’s PDP we all should blame for the condition of Nigeria. If the left the country in good condition, APC will not face difficulties they are currently facing. PDP ruled Nigeria and corrupted everywhere in the country, to clean up their mess, it will take more than 4 years of APC in power.

    Let the leaders keep fighting themselves. Anyone who is not contented with the situation of Nigeria, has a better option – join Biafra and have eternal peace
