Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has reacted to the ouster of the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Iyorchia Ayu.

Ayu was replaced by Umar Damagum.

This comes barely two days after the Executive Committee of the PDP in Igyorov Ward, Gboko Local Government Area (LGA) of Benue State suspended the former chairman with immediate effect.

Ayu had been embroiled in a bitter feud with some high-ranking PDP members led by five governors identified as the G5: Wike, Samuel Ortom (Benue), Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu).

Following Ayu’s removal, Wike celebrated the development at the commissioning of the Trans-Kalabari Road Phase 1, Degema Local Government Area (LGA), Rivers.

“You see how God works? All those people who were plotting evil against us, they are now the ones suffering it,” he said.
