Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, said on Friday that Nigerians had started expressing regret for voting for the All Progressives Congress at the national level in the 2015 elections.
Wike said the ruling party has nothing to offer in terms of development, apart from propaganda which it used in winning the election.
Speaking at the Government House, Port Harcourt, when he granted audience to the Abuluoma Council of Chiefs,
Wike also stated that APC’s fight against corruption was targeted at political opponents, adding that the party was only prosecuting former PDP governors, while indicted former APC governors have been spared.
“Nigerians have seen that the present ruling party has nothing to offer them except to tell lies. They claim they are fighting corruption, but how many APC former governors have been arraigned?
“Nobody is against the government fighting corruption, but it must be fought with sincerity. Even when an APC former governor is indicted by a judicial commission of inquiry, they fail to prosecute such a person.
“I just heard that they have arrested the former Niger State governor after two years. Maybe because political activities are picking up and they want to intimidate him; that is why this is happening now,” Wike added.
The governor also predicted that the crisis the APC planted in the PDP would be the first thing that would consume it (APC).
