Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has lambasted the committee set up by the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) to investigate the emergence of Ndudi Elumelu as the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, declaring the committee as the most corrupt in the history of the party.
Speaking in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, Wike thanked former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt Hon Austin Opara, for withdrawing from the committee, and not allowing himself to be entangled in what he described as the "illegal outcome" of the committee's activities.
According to him "The Committee set up by the PDP on the illegal emergence of Ndudi Elumelu is the most corrupt committee ever set up by the party.
"We thank our worthy son, Rt Hon Austin Opara, for withdrawing from that committee, so that he is not entangled in the illegal activities of the tainted committee ".
Wike warned the party not to toy with Rivers State as it is not in the interest of the party to do so.
He said: "We are warning PDP to be careful not to toy with Rivers State. Rivers State has all it takes to withstand the PDP and fight the party to a standstill.
"The Rivers State governor is not one of those governors that anyone can cajole or that would kowtow to their illicit activities."
