Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has alleged that the All Progressives Congress, APC, is trying to penetrate the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.<\/p>\n

Wike said the APC was trying to penetrate the PDP in an attempt to distract the party\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n

He disclosed that the ruling party is using \u201cone or two persons\u201d to carry out their aims.<\/p>\n

The Governor spoke on Wednesday after a closed-door meeting with party stakeholders in Plateau State.<\/p>\n

A statement by Wike\u2019s spokesman, Kelvin Ebiri, quoted Wike as saying efforts were on to ensure that APC\u2019s plans failed.<\/p>\n

According to Wike: \u201cAPC is trying to penetrate our party to make sure that the leadership of the party at the national level is being distracted through one or two persons.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we are making sure that does not happen. If the party is united, then we are sure of coasting home in 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd not just the national election, also Plateau State, knowing fully well that Plateau is a PDP State but somehow, we are no longer in power in Plateau State.\u201d<\/p>\n
