PDP Disowns Fake Caretaker Committee List Which Favours Wike’s Camp

The Peoples Democratic party (PDP)  National working committee (NWC) has Rejected the caretaker committee list which favours Wike’s camp as Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers storms party’s National secretariat Friday in Abuja to protest the caretaker committee list, which allegedly favoured the camp of his predecessor, Nyesom Wike and the current Minister of Federal Capital Territory.

Speaking to newsmen in Abuja shortly after the meeting at the party’s national secretariat, Fubara said the National Working Committee (NWC) of PDP has rejected the amended list of Caretaker Committee members which favoured Wike’s camp.

Let me inform our teeming members, loyalists and supporters that the list flying on the Social Media space is fake and should be ignored. For purposes of clarity, the National Leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party following the expiration of the tenure of some States, local government and Ward Executives had directed after a meeting of the National working committee, the BOT and the Governors forum that the old Exco members whose tenure had expired, should transform into Caretaker Committees without anybody being added or removed, not even those who died or resigned from the Exco should be replaced.

On this strength I want to state that the purported list of Caretaker committees seen on social media, is concocted by enemies of the State whose stock in trade is to constantly exploit every means to mislead gullible people, causing unnecessary distractions in the State. The list circulating around is fake in its entirety and not in conformity with the position of the leadership of the party, hence, it should be ignored. The fake list in question is the handiwork of desperate empty drums, making loud noise just to infuriate our supporters and cause unnecessary anxiety in the political space.

The concocted list is from enemies of the State who used looted state funds to procure it.  We assure you, that all members of the party Exco who transformed into the Caretaker Committees remained intact with no one added or removed as contained in the Memo released by the National Secretariat of our party. We also encourage our teeming supporters to remain calm and continue supporting His Excellency Sir Siminalayi Fubara, Ksc, GSSRS, Executive Governor of River State and the leader of the Party in the State.
