Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike, on Thursday, hit back at the national chairman of his party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, for calling him and others children. Wike described Ayu as an ingrate, because those he derided as children were the same people who brought him from the gutters to the chairmanship of the party.
The governor made the riposte at the launch of a project in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
He claimed Ayu was unwilling to resign due to the allure of some N14 billion made during the PDP primaries, warning that arrogance would not take the PDP chairman anywhere.
Wike said Ayu’s actions were not geared towards the party’s victory in 2023, and promised to assist him in making the PDP fail.
