APC Dissolves Rivers Exco, Puts Wike’s Loyalists in Charge

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has dissolved the Rivers State executive committees of the party at all levels.

The development was announced by the APC National Publicity Secretary, Barrister Felix Morka.

Speaking to newsmen at the end of the NWC meeting on Wednesday night in Abuja, Morka disclosed that a caretaker committee would be chaired by Chief Tony Okocha, with Chief Eric Nwibani as secretary.

Morka explained that the caretaker committee is mandated to conduct a comprehensive and fresh electronic party registration of all members in the state.

The APC spokesman said the caretaker committee has six months to deliver on its mandate

Okocha is an ardent supporter and political ally of the Minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike.

Okocha recently led a delegation of Wike’s loyalists on a courtesy visit to the APC National Chairman, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje in Abuja, where he accused Rotimi Amaechi of working against Tinubu in the last election.
