The Peoples Democratic Party chairman in Rivers State, Mr Felix Obuah has said that at least 21 Commissioners in Rivers state serving in the government of Governor Rotimi Amaechi are set to dump the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Obuah’s stated this after the deputy governor to Amaechi, Tele Ikuru defected on Sunday 22 March to the PDP from the APC. He said, “About 21 Commissioners in Governor Amaechi cabinet are already talking with me about coming home to join their own party.
They are just waiting to pick their last salaries and dump Amaechi and the APC sinking ship.” However, his claims were dismissed by Mrs. Ibim Semenitari, the Commissioner for Information and Communications, who said that the commissioners were not going to defect. “We are loyal to the governor (Amaechi) and the party (APC),” she said.
