Kingsley Chuku, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s state legal adviser in Rivers State, has warned Daniel Bwala, a spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar, the party’s presidential candidate in the last elections, to stop criticizing Nyesom Wike, the minister of the FCT.
Atiku’s aide was overheard claiming in a video that while Atiku was a founding father of the PDP, Wike was still a member of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), and Chuku took offense to this.
Bwala’s attacks on Wike, he added in a statement released on Saturday, are “a display of graduation of a mindset from psychology to psychosis.”
The statement continues, “That childish remark is a figment of Bwala’s imagination, and I would have thought that a legal mind would do due diligence before going public with such crass misinformation,” which raises questions about Bwala’s mental stability and his ability to spread false information.
Chief Nyesom Wike, unlike Bwala, whose legal profession is not beyond charge and bail, was practicing law in Port Harcourt before being elected as Obio/Akpor Local Government Chairman, at one of the city’s most prominent businesses, E.C. Ukala & Co.
It’s hard to imagine where Bwala picked up such a high level of ignorance, and it’s even harder to understand why Atiku Abubakar would hire someone so obviously nefarious as to serve as his spokesman.
We in the PDP in Rivers State, however, will always have the utmost respect for Chief Nyesom Wike and consider ourselves to be the party’s crown jewels.
“At the appropriate time, particularly after the impending exit of Bwala and the other wolves unleashed on the party by Atiku, the light of our great party, the PDP, will shine again, and Rivers State will do what it has always done for the party.”
