Mark emphasized that the sitting Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, cannot be taken out of the equation and that it is “unheard of” for someone else to come and conduct congresses in his place.

Mark’s comments highlight the ongoing political tensions in Rivers State and the PDP, with concerns about the party’s constitution, Nyesom Wike and the role of the Governor in party affairs.
In his words;
“Coming to conduct congresses in Rivers State other than the sitting Governor is an aberration. People may have their reasons for doing what they are doing but this is a complete sham, total disregards to the tenets, constitution of the party because by his position as the Governor, you cannot take him out of the equation. I don’t know what they did to hand over the materials of the congress to someone who is not the Governor of the State. It’s completely wrong and outrageous for you to have someone else come take his position and conduct congresses. It’s unheard of, no State has ever done that”CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
