Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike says no State has given the Peoples Democratic Party PDP more support than Rivers State.
He says the State has since 1999 given the party the highest in terms of votes and financial support.
He however disclosed that the State has nothing much to show for its enormous contribution to the PDP.

Speaking when he commissioned the Etche Campus of the Rivers State University, Governor Wike vowed that henceforth, anyone vying for Rivers must also promise to give something back in return; saying that the state’s votes will no longer be given out for free.
The Governor is quick to point out that the struggle is not about securing his personal interest, saying that no amount of threat or blackmail will stop him from fighting for what is due to Rivers State
He added that some of those who are claiming to love the PDP today were those who abandoned and worked for the party’s defeat in 2019.
Governor Nyesom Wike said the people of Rivers State would at the appropriate time decide on where their interest lie.
