Governors who were elected on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) platform have maintained that they recognize Rivers State’s Governor Siminalayi Fubara as the party’s leader in the state.

According to ZINGTIE, Fubara and former state governor Nyesom Wike have been engaged in a power struggle for the party’s leadership.

The PDP governors were forewarned by Wike, the current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to avoid Rivers State, as he threatened to set fire in each of their states if they continued to support their estranged godson.

In response to Wike’s contentious outbursts, Governor Bala Mohammed, the Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum, stated that their support for Fubara would not be rescinded.

Speaking during the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) delegation reception, Bauchi State’s current governor, Mohammed, stated that the PDP governors’ decision was appropriate.

Speaking to reporters soon after the meeting, Mohammed continued, “Governor Fubara should be given authority over the party’s structure because he is the most senior PDP member in Rivers state.”

According to him, the NWC delegation has endorsed the PDP Governors’ Forum’s resolution to recognize Rivers State Governor Similaye Fubara as the party’s leader in the state.

“The decision is in order and that is how it is supposed to be. Governor Fubara is the leader of the party in the state. It is along this line that we collectively agreed for the rule of law, and the delegation gave their firm commitment and support for the position of the PDP Governors Forum in Rivers State.”

“We all know the relationship between the FCT Minister and the current Governor of Rivers state which is that of the mentor and the mentee. We are working behind the scenes to ensure they come together to work together in a manner that PDP is known for.

“Certainly, it is not something we can dictate here but we have summoned the courage and the will to ensure that the correct thing is done,” he said
