Wike orders removal of PDP flag from Rivers Govt House

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, Thursday, ordered the removal of all Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) flags in the Government House.

This comes days after the former Vice President and presidential candidate of the party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and the embittered Governor Wike met in Abuja, in a move aimed at resolving the differences in the main opposition party ahead of the 2023 general elections.

However, the aggrieved governor instructed the Rivers state Government House CSO to pull down all PDP flags in the Government House.

Recall that the Board of Trustees (BoT) of the PDP also set up a committee to reconcile the “warring factions” in the party.
Speaking on the reconciliatory moves by the party, Walid Jibril, the PDP BoT chairman said the meeting will generate “strong recommendations” that will lead to the reconciliation of aggrieved members, including Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state.
