Rivers state Governor Nyesom Wike has said that he will help PDP not to win the upcoming 2023 general election.
The governor made the remarks during the commissioning of Omerelu Internal roads in the Ikwerre Local Government Area of the state.
Wike was responding to the PDP National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu statement where he said the people calling for his resignation are children.
The PDP chairman insisted that he will not resign, despite calls by pressure groups and some PDP governors.
It was reported that Mr Ayu’s resignation has been Mr Wike’s major demand from the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar before he considers pledging his support.

At their meeting in London, last Thursday, the governor and his team told Atiku that they would only negotiate with him for his support if Mr Ayu steps down and is replaced by a candidate from the southern zone of the country.
Calls have since followed the meeting – asking that Mr Ayu resigns as he promised before the party’s primary in June.
But in his response, Mr Ayu said he was elected for a tenure of four years and is yet to complete a year.
“I co-founded the PDP in Nigeria and some boys who don’t know how we struggled and what we went through can’t cause problems for the party. When we started the PDP, we did not know those boys, they are children, and they don’t know why we founded the party. We will not agree with one person to come and destroy our party,” Mr Ayu said.
In his address on Thursday, Mr Wike said since the party chairman wants PDP to loose, he will help the party to loose the 2023 election.
