The Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, says all the propaganda, and falsehood foisted on the state by the All Progressives Congress, APC, is personally masterminded by the former Lagos State Governor, and APC National leader, Bola Tinubu to further fuel the political crisis in the State.
According to a statement signed by the Special Adviser on Media to the sate chairman of PDP, Jerry Needam, Tinubu who is Gov Amaechis close ally is only interested in protecting his business contracts in Rivers State courtesy of Amaechi.
The party stated that its investigations revealed that the major contracting firms handling various jobs in the state are owned by Tinubu.
The PDP regrets that the only way Senator Tinubu feels he can sustain his business interest and retain his grip on the soul of the state is to continue to deceive Amaechi and instigate crisis in the State.
Rivers State remains only one, out of all the PDP controlled states in the country, and cannot alone give the APC the votes required to form the central government without a corresponding support from others.
This clearly shows that there are other reasons for the special attention of the APC National leadership in Rivers State. And to complement this vicious desire, they have found a willing tool in Gov Amaechi, who too is being propelled by an inordinate political ambition to play the prodigal son needed by these gold diggers to achieve their aim, the party said.
