National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Prince Uche Secondus has congratulated Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, on his re-election.
Secondus said that the party was proud of Wike and all its flag bearers and their conduct during and after the election.
“By your peaceful conducts in the face of provocations, you have demonstrated truly that democracy is in your DNA and this we will continue to exhibit until all non democrats pretending to be one are flushed out of our polity”, he said.
According to a statement from his media office, released in Abuja on Wednesday, the National Chairman said that the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, should hide its head in shame that after four years in the office, it had to use the combined team of gullible INEC staff and military operatives to hang on to power after “stealing the people’s mandate”.
Secondus told the victorious party flag bearers that if they had contested with the APC, it would have been an easy walkover but they found themselves battling with inec and military operatives.
He lamented that in Rivers state where APC had no candidate, it took extra 10 days to get the result out from the state because overzealous operatives were fighting for a non existence party in the state.
Secondus said that even those in APC claiming to have been victorious against PDP candidates knows from their heart of heart that they won the election and that they are beneficiary of a fraudulent process that would collapse before the law.
The National Chairman remarked that the introduction of inconclusive and suspension of polling in the country’s electoral process was ostensibly to aide APC to victory through supplementary balloting but they still could not do it in Rivers, Buachi, Adamawa, Sokoto and Benue because of the doggedness of committed democrats in the PDP.
Prince Secondus noted that the brigandage that were deployed in the supplementary election in Kano by the APC administration in the state evidently assisted by security agencies became the height of impunity exhibited by this regime in the concluded election.
The PDP leader said that nothing underscores the desperation of APC administration to hang on to power at all cost irrespective of the consequences of such actions, like the brazen show of might displayed in Kano supplementary election.
