“No Condition Is Permanent” And You Can’t Be Governor Forever, Ex-PDP Chair Secondus Fires Back At Wike

Former chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus, on Saturday rebuked Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, over the warning against his support for the party’s Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, telling him that “no condition is permanent.”

Wike lost the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential ticket to the former Vice President at the Abuja primary election in May and has been in public recriminations with the party and the Presidential candidate.

Sokoto Governor, Aminu Tambuwal’s last-minute deal at the primary with Atiku knocked Wike, who supported him at the 2018 convention in Port Harcourt, to the second position.

Since then, Wike has gone on the offensive, attacking State and national PDP leaders and officials.

The Rivers helmsman accuses his Sokoto counterpart Aminu Tambuawal of betrayal for stepping down for Atiku.

A visibly angry Governor Wike, who spoke on Saturday at the flagging off ceremony of the construction of internal roads Omagwa, Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State, maintained he will “finish” anyone who pitches his tent with “enemies of the State.”

Wike lamented that influential politicians who claimed to be with him have shifted loyalty to his rivals, threatening: “We will take every might we have, we will even leave our enemy and finish you first.

“So all of you going to Abuja to hold meetings with our enemies in the State, I’m going to finish you to the last.”

In reply, Secondus Media Office said in a terse statement that Governor Wike should note that he would not be in power forever.

Condemning Wike’s “disdainful threat..that he will crush anybody who works with him in support of the PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar,” Secondus stated: “Wike you cannot crush anybody, I cannot fight or join issues with you, only God can crush.”

Quoting Nnamdi Azikiwe’s advisory, Secondus added: “No condition is permanent and nobody can become Governor of a state or President of this country forever.”
