Amid the unresolved crisis rocking the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), the embattled National Chairman of the party, Dr Iyorchia Ayu on Wednesday described the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike as a great asset to the party.
Dr Ayu who spoke in a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communication, Yusuf Dingyadi in Kaduna State said that Governor Wike has helped to rescue PDP since time immemorial.
He said: “We are trying to see that everyone is giving a fear hearing. As we speak, the local reconciliation committee is meeting with party members at the state level to discuss issues and find solutions to those issues.
“For example, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, is one of the great assets to PDP. He is a leader, governor, and somebody who has helped to rescue PDP since time immemorial.
“Since Ayu took over as the Chairman of the party to date, he has made tremendous progress in building the party in all 36 States including the FCT Abuja.
Recalls that Wike has been aggrieved with PDP over the refusal of the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to pick him as his running mate.
Subsequently, Wike has called for the resignation of Ayu laying claims to the internal zoning arrangement of the PDP.
