A governorship aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State, Dakuku Peterside, has said the APC is unstoppable in its quest to win the presidential, governorship and other election positions in the state in 2023.
The governorship aspirant said this at the party’s thanksgiving service held at Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, on Saturday.
Dakuku, who expressed delight that APC in Rivers State was on the right path of recovery and victory to end what he described as the “sad breast-pocket governance style of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state”, expressed delight at the mammoth crowd and success of the event.
He added that the recent successes recorded by the APC in the state from the ward to the local government and state congresses, had reinvigorated its membership to a new height in readiness to kick-out the ruling party in the state.
The governorship aspirant said: “You all have seen the mammoth crowd here which points to a new height in APC’s renewed movement towards ending the breast-pocket governance Rivers people found themselves in since 2015.
“Our people have suffered enough in the hands of Wike and PDP but APC is set to end all of that and reset the state to achieving her full potential. That PDP must go in 2023 is our resolve, and working in harmony, we shall achieve that.
“Today is a statement in the party’s resolve to terminate the directionless regime of Wike and his PDP and in turn entrench good governance and grow our beloved state.”
Speaking further at the event, Dakuku commended Minister of Transportation Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, for heeding to the calls of Nigerians to run for presidency in 2023.
Describing Amaechi as “most fitting, competent, and pan-Nigerian”, Dakuku expressed confidence in Nigerians supporting Amaechi’s aspiration.
He said: “I commend Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi for taking this critical decision to serve Nigerians in the highest office in the land.

“Heeding the call of Nigerians to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari is a call to courage, commitment and continuation of the current Administration’s determination to develop the nation. I am convinced this Amaechi Project is Nigerians’ Project.”
He stated that the Rivers APC was ready to mobilise the state voters to vote out PDP, adding that the administration of Wike represents the lowest for the state since it was created on May 27, 1967.
“The agitation is everywhere across the state for freedom from the current Administration of Governor Nyesom Wike, which is the lowest for the state since its creation on May 27, 1967.
“Every Rivers’ citizen, including civil servants, traders, craftsmen, students and our statesmen, are tired of Wike and PDP and are in unison to see their end.
“APC in the state is ready to mobilise them, going forward, to serve this wicked government the red card it well deserves,” Dakuku added.
He further expressed appreciation to Amaechi for providing leadership at a most challenging time in the life of the party, saying: “Our leader Rt. Hon Chibuike Amaechi showed courage, resilience and resourcefulness in rallying party members to stay together in one accord during this trying period and God blessed his effort.”
The event had in attendance former and serving state governors, senators, members of the Federal House of Representatives, serving and former members of Rivers State Houses of Assembly, ministers, and thousands of APC members drawn from the twenty-three local government areas of the state.
