Wike Dares PDP’s National Chairman To Stop Any Candidate From Contesting In 2023

Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike has dared Iyorchia Ayu, the national chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, to bar any candidate in the party from running in the 2023 elections.

This comes after the PDP national chairman claimed that he could have prevented the political aspirations of those calling for his resignation as previously reported by AgnesIsika Blog.

On Friday, October 28, in Gboko, Benue state, Ayu speaking to his supporters said, “I have been silent over all the things you are hearing against me because I don’t want any crack in the party I belong to in my state.

“I have the powers to say ‘you and you will not go anywhere’, because I will insist that I must sign before you go anywhere.

“But I have signed for all candidates produced by the PDP to go ahead in their dreams — whether I like it or not, I signed.”

Responding to the comments of the PDP chairman, the Rivers State governor said, “I dare the national chairman of PDP to stop any contestant for the election. I dare Ayu to stop any PDP candidate from contesting the election. He doesn’t have the power.”
