RIVERS PDP CRISES: AARON, CHUKWUEMEKA, LED BY NYESOM WIKE WENT AHEAD AND CHANGED THE ENTIRE LIST – NNAME EWOR

A staunch loyalist to Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, Nname Ewor, has raised concerns over alleged political sidelining orchestrated by opposing factions. Ewor claims that his loyalty to the governor has led to his exclusion, along with others, from a key list of appointees. He alleges that the list was altered under the influence of former Rivers State Governor and current FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.

In an explosive interview on Channels Television, Ewor stated that Chukwuemeka Aaron, led by Minister Wike, removed him and other loyal supporters of Governor Fubara from the list. Ewor expressed disappointment and frustration over what he described as a calculated move to undermine the governor's administration.

"This is a clear case of political sabotage, and it's unfortunate that Minister Wike and his loyalists are behind this move," Ewor said. "As a loyalist of Governor Fubara, I expect to be given the opportunity to serve the state, but it seems that my loyalty has been rewarded with exclusion."

The alleged rift highlights tensions between Governor Fubara's camp and factions aligned with Wike, a prominent political figure in Rivers State and beyond. Ewor's allegations underscore growing concerns over internal party politics and their impact on governance in the state.

The development comes amid ongoing power struggles in Rivers State, with Governor Fubara facing opposition from factions loyal to Minister Wike. The situation has sparked debates about the influence of internal party politics on governance and the need for stability in the state.

Political analysts say that the crisis in Rivers State is a reflection of the deeper structural problems within the ruling party. "The party's internal dynamics are being driven by personal interests and power struggles, rather than a commitment to serving the people," said Dr. Sofiri Peterside, a political analyst. "This is having a corrosive effect on governance and the delivery of public services."

As the crisis deepens, Governor Fubara's administration is facing increasing pressure to address the concerns of loyalists like Ewor. The governor's office has yet to respond to Ewor's allegations, but sources close to the administration say that efforts are being made to resolve the crisis and restore stability to the state.
