Rivers Crisis: Wike Now Dean Of Politics In Nigeria – APC

The chairman of the Rivers State Caretaker Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Tony Okocha, has declared the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike as the Dean of Nigerian politics, whose influence cannot be toyed with.
He said this on Thursday, December 14, at the national secretariat of the APC in Abuja where he also accused the Rivers state governor, Similaye Fubara of the demolition of the state House of Assembly complex to prevent the majority of 27 members from sitting.

Okocha who came to brief the APC National Working Committee (NWC) of political development in the state following the defection of 27 members of the state House of Assembly from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC, vowed that his party will fight against the illegality being perpetrated by the governor in the state.

Asked if the opposition party will be willing to have the minister in APC, Okocha who was Chief of Staff to the then former Governor Rotimi Amaechi said one of the mandates APC NWC gave his committee was to engage in a massive membership drive and will be ready to receive Wike, whom he described as the “Dean of Politics.”
