With Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has provided an explanation for why he closed the PDP Atiku/Okowa presidential campaign headquarters in Port Harcourt with around two months till the election.
Due to the campaign office's unapproved location in Port Harcourt, according to Wike, he had to close it down.
The Governor said that in order to provide legal backing for the sealing-off of the campaign office, he invoked Executive Orders 21 and 22.
At the opening of the 17.2 kilometer-long Bori-Kono Road in the Baen village of Khana Local Government Area of the State, he made this announcement.
He claims that, "few days ago, Maeba and Abiye went to Igboukwu Street, D-Line (Port Harcourt) without the approval of the government to site a political office.
“We are talking about Executive Orders 21 and 22 that have now been taken over by the law passed by the State House of Assembly. We did not send the chairman of Port Harcourt council to go and bring it (the building) down. We have the power.”
The PDP is now experiencing an internal crisis as a result of the national chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu, refusing to step down in order to make room for a southerner.
Due to the frequent changes in the party's top posts, Wike is dissatisfied with the PDP's leadership.
The PDP ignored the Southern region of the nation by allocating its presidential ticket and National Chairman to the North.
In order to achieve this, Wike and the integrity movement have pushed for the resignation of Ayu as the PDP's national chairman.
