As accusation and counter-accusations between the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) generates bad blood among members of the major opposition party and the APC, the PDP on Thursday drew the attention of Nigerians and the international community to what it described as “threat to Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, by Federal Government.”
Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, the PDP National Publicity Secretary made the call while condemning the development between Gov. Wike and the federal government.
Ologbondiyan noted that the recent statement by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, that the Federal Government would have dragged Wike to court, but for his constitutional immunity, had confirmed the fears that government wanted to silence the opposition.
“PDP condemns in strong terms the further threat against Wike by the Minister of Information and Culture,´´ he said.
He said rather than dismissing the governor’s allegation that there was a plot by the federal government to assassinate him in a crowd, the matter should be investigated.
