The governor described the move as “spiritual assignment”, stressing that joining the APC gives the state opportunity to have a good working relationship with the president.

“As you have said, this is indeed a spiritual assignment because it concerns the safety, progress, and growth of Rivers State.
“We cannot pursue a different direction when the President is pursuing another.

“Joining the APC is part of our commitment to ensure a seamless working relationship and to contribute meaningfully to his reelection efforts in Rivers State”, he said.
