Gov Wike of Rivers State

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Iyorcha Ayu, has blamed the root cause of the agitations for secession on political imbalance, marginalization of the South-East people, saying the party would handle southeast issues like the late President Umaru Yar’Adua settled the Niger Delta agitation.
The PDP National Chairman stated this in Owerri, while addressing party faithful during the civic reception held to honor the National Secretary of the party, Senator Nnaemeka Samuel Anyanwu (Samdaddy) at Kanu Nwankwo Center Owerri Imo state.
Ayu, who boasted that the PDP would “return to Aso Rock”, and take over Imo State come 2023, said the government in place today at the centre is not the government that listens.
The party National Chairman said, “We shall address the issue of Biafra agitation like Yar’Adua addressed Niger Delta issue when we eventually retake Aso Rock in 2023 .
“We will not use DSS to kill your people like the APC-led administration did. PDP will win the 2023 election.
Ayu, who assured that the PDP was ready to correct the abnormality, said what the South-East zone is passing through in Nigeria is not healthy and encouraging.
He harped on the need to join the Peoples Democratic Party to change the narrative and proffer urgent solutions to the menace.
The Governors of River, Abia, Uyo and Oyo States, Barr. Nyeso Wike, Mr. Okezie Ikpeazu, Udom Gabriel Emmanuel and Mr. Seyi Makinde, respectively, joined the PDP scribe in a grand reception.
