Governor of Rivers State , Nyesom Wike, has said the process of selecting the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will be turbulent.
Wike in an interview with a national television in Port Harcourt, the state capital, yesterday said only a PDP administration would rescue the nation from its current challenges.
Gov wike said he would not support the emergence of a presidential candidate who is not ready for the task ahead.
“Let nobody come and tell you that in arriving at a presidential candidate that it will be easy.
“No way, it can never be. You know, there are two types of turbulences. There is turbulence that will not have a crash, which is a normal turbulence. There is a turbulence that there is likely to be a crash.
“Our own turbulence in PDP is the normal turbulence, which I believe we will get through it. But APC turbulence is a turbulence that is likely to lead to a crash.
“PDP has redeemed its position towards what Nigerians are expecting because Nigerians are tired of what is going on in the country. So they need an alternative, and the only alternative as it is today is the PDP,” he said.
“And so, if you want to run for presidency under PDP, I will not support somebody who will just want to bear the name of the former presidential candidate; I will not agree to that. I must see that you are prepared for it, and to confront this evil called APC,” he said.
