About one thousand members of the People Democratic Party in
Ogba-Egbema-Ndoni LGA of Rivers State have defected to the All
Progressives Congress. One of the most prominent defectors is
Prof. Henry Ogboma. He was a member of the Judicial Panel of Inquiry set
up by Governor Nyesom Wike, to probe the administration of the former
Governor Rotimi Amaechi.
Prof. Ogboma made damning revelations, not just concerning the PDP as a
party but also with regards to Governor Wike and his fake Panel
of Inquiry.
According to Daily Post, he said: “When I was proposed as member of
the Judicial Panel of Inquiry, I told them that I was not disposed to
such an assignment, but after I appraised the nature of those who came
to my house to persuade me to accept the job, their utterances and
advice, I came to the conclusion that the assignment was not open for my
election. So I took it.
“The private briefing was more shocking and worrisome to me. It was more
like, ‘you guys must look for something, you must create something to
indict Amaechi’.
“The Report was adjusted several times without success. At some
point I felt pity for the Chairman. He was helpless. Please, I don’t
want to say more about that Panel for now. All I can tell you is that
the PDP is an assemblage of greedy elements, militants and touts who
have no interest of the State at heart. The Governor and the PDP are
desperate and wickedly mischievous. You need to be extremely careful to
stay around them.”
In the same vein, seven members of the PDP in Ndele community in
Emuoha local government and about fifty others in Elelenwo community
in Obio Akpor local government also defected to the APC.
Receiving the defectors at the different venues, the running mate of
the Governorship candidate of APC, Asita Asita encouraged the people
to work for the party and development of the state. Asita expressed hope
that Rivers people would have elections where voters would exercise
their fundamental rights.
