Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has rejected the offer of the Peoples Democratic Party<\/a> ( PDP) leadership to intervene in the conflict with outgoing Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson over the Soku Oil Wells\/fields returned to Rivers State by the Federal High Court.<\/p>\n

In an interview on Tuesday, Governor Wike said that there is no premise for the intervention by the PDP leadership since the Federal High Court has already determined the issue in question.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI don\u2019t why they are interceding. They have no power to resolve the issue of Oil Wells. Secondly, the matter has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnybody who is not satisfied should go on Appeal. Are they interceding on behalf of someone who betrayed the party?<\/p>\n

\u201cThey know that Governor Dickson betrayed and sold out the party. They know that during the 2019 election in Rivers State, what happened in the state. That Dickson worked with my opponent.<\/p>\n

\u201cThroughout that period, the National Chairman himself knows, that people were calling from all over the country to know the situation. Dickson never called one day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was because of his alignment with the opposition. I can show proof that Dickson had already made up his mind to go over to APC.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not going to sit down with anybody to discuss anything as it relates to Governor Dickson. I have no business with Governor Dickson.\u201d<\/p>\n

Governor Wike said that the right thing for Dickson to do is to resign from the PDP so that PDP leaders in Bayelsa State can rebuild the party.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, Governor Dickson ought to have resigned from the party by now. So that the leaders of PDP in Bayelsa would rebuild the party.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
