Wike Alleges Plot By Army To Disrupt Rivers Guber Poll

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State accused the 6 Division of the Nigerian Army of planning to disrupt the March 9, 2019 Governorship and State Assembly elections in the state.

Governor Wike said that the 6 Division has mapped out local government areas where they will initiate violence to ensure that elections  are not conducted like they did during the Presidential and National Assembly elections. 

Addressing journalists in Port Harcourt,  Governor Wike said: “They are plotting to cause crisis, so that the Governorship and State Assembly will be cancelled. 

“That is what the 6 Division is planning”.

He said despite the militarisation of the elections, there are areas that some political parties cannot win because they are the strongholds of the PDP. 

“Did APC win the Presidential election in Rivers State? It doesn’t  matter what they do, they will not win. 

“There are areas that are no go areas. You don’t kill people simply because you want to win. Look at how they shed innocent blood because they want to get 25 percent or they want to satisfy the ego of one or two individuals “, he said.

Governor Wike said that the PDP in Rivers State is prepared for the elections. He said the party campaigned and interfaced with Rivers people.

“We have been prepared for these elections. There is no party that campaigned the way we did. Nobody is more prepared for the elections”, he said.

He added: “You cannot change the will of the people.  It is difficult “.
