APC and ADC Candidates Clash Over 2027 Election in Rivers
The Chief Emeka Bekee-led All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State has stated that the voters are the ultimate decision-makers for the 2027 general election. Comrade Darlington Nwauju, the party's spokesperson, emphasized that the party's preferred candidates will receive significant support from the electorate, asserting that the election cannot be determined by a single individual.
Meanwhile, Dr. Gabriel Pidomson, the governorship candidate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has criticized the political establishment, declaring that Rivers people will not accept any imposed governor in the upcoming election. Pidomson described the election as a referendum for the people of Rivers State, asserting that it is not merely a contest between candidates but a collective decision by the electorate.
He challenged the political influence of former governor Nyesom Wike, questioning the projects he has brought to Rivers as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and claiming that the electorate is ready for change.
