Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has raised a fresh allegation against the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.
Wike accused Ayu of collecting N100 million
and N1 billion from a governor.
In a media chat on Friday, the governor
challenged the embattled PDP National Chairman to refute the corruption
allegations against him.
According to Wike, “I don’t just come out
and speak, let Ayu come out and say he did not collect N1billion. Let me tell
you Ayu collected N100 million from a governor.
“If not for the love of this party, if we
release what we have, Ayu’s children will go to him and deny him.”
Wike also vowed to spill more allegations
if “we are pushed to the wall.”
The governor is spearheading PDP members
calling for Ayu’s removal.
Many times, Wike had accused Ayu of
mismanagement and fraudulent practices.
The Governor also anchored his calls on the
fact that PDP’s presidential candidate and National Chairman can’t come from
the same region.
