Prince Ned Nwoko, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Delta North senatorial candidate, has described Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, as a nuisance who has done the party a lot of damage and should be expelled.

Nwoko, who spoke to reporters in Asaba, Delta Capital, decried that Wike was being treated with levity by the PDP hierarchy, adding that he should be shown the way out of the party.

According to him: "Wike Is a nuisance, quote me anywhere. If I were the leader of the party, I would have acted differently. I would have done things differently. He has done a lot of damage to the PDP and I don't know what they are waiting for to show him the way out."

On his political ambition, Nwoko said he would do better than he did in the House of Representatives in 1999, adding that the hallmark of a good legislator is the ability to lobby.

"A good lawmaker is almost as good as someone with executive power. It is all about lobbying. Normally our focus is on the well-being of Nigeria. As a senator, I will be representing Nigeria whether you are in PDP, APC or Labour Party. It doesn't make any difference to me.

“If you look at the bills I sponsored when I was in the House of Representatives, it was all about the people. It was about the minimum wage, about the disability allowance and many others like that.

The River State Governor is leading a rebel of five Governors of the Party against the National Chairman of PDP, Iyorchia Ayu.

He has also threatened not to work for the Presidential candidate of the Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, threatening further that he will help the party lose the presidential election.

The four other Governors include Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State and Samuel Ortom of Benue State.
