The head of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Digital Media, Tony Ehilebo, has expressed concern over the face-off between the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike and former federal lawmaker, Senator Dino Melaye.
Dino, who is aspiring get a hold o the party’s ticket for the November 11 governorship election, came under verbal attack a few days ago when the Rivers State governor, Wike opposed his ambition.
Ehilebo said on Friday that Governor Wike lacked the power to interfere with Kogi State election, saying it is internal.
Ehilebo decried Wike’s utterances and his flamboyant moves in the party, saying the belief that Wike “can misbehave and nobody can call him to order, is impossible”.
He said, “Thinking he can stop Dino is an abnormality; is Wike from Kogi State? What warranted him calling media houses and berating a candidate of his own party? What necessitated that?
“If he has issues or he wants to support another person in Kogi State, he should know how to do that. This belief that he can misbehave and nobody can call him to order, is impossible.
“Dino himself should not have given a response. He could have issued a statement but shouldn’t toe the same part with Wike.
“The Kogi issue is internal, if Wike wants to support a candidate, he should empower someone in the state who can speak up for him, not himself. This is an insult to Kogi people”.
