The All Progressives Congress has come out to react to the dissolution of the Rivers State Executive Council and the sacking of the Chief of Staff to the Governor, Emeka Woke, and Senior Special Assistant on Protocol, Harold Koko.

The party recently had its say via a press statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to APC, Nyesom Wike is clearly prioritising politics above governance, and the dissolution did not come to the party as a surprise.

The party added that no one should forget that Wike started by disengaging the sanitation authorities without replacement, an action that has turned Port Harcourt into the refuse/garbage capital of Nigeria.

It read, “The dissolution did not come to some of us as a surprise. Any keen observer of Governor Wike’s brick and mortar style of governance should always expect him to exhibit preference for self interest above common good.”

“He (the governor) started by disengaging the sanitation authorities without replacement – an action that has turned Port Harcourt into the refuse/garbage capital of Nigeria as I write.”

“While we’re all burdened by the stench in Port Harcourt, the governor decided to dissolve his cabinet and send his appointees home at a critical time when governance deficit has become the order of the day in the state.”

“We are not surprised because the governor places a high premium on politics over governance. We don’t call him an accidental governor for nothing.”
