The Rivers State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has described the governorship candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the state, Mr Biokpomabo Awara, as a big joker following conflicting claims he made regarding his position in the March 9, 2019, governorship election in the State.
State Chairman of the PDP, Felix Obuah, in a statement, accused Awara of speaking from both sides of his mouth in his desperation to reap from where he never sowed.
Obuah said that the AAC governorship candidate while displaying his frustration over his woeful performance in the election, claimed that he defeated Governor Nyesom Wike in seven local government areas and in another breath, claimed he won in 15 local government areas.
Asserting that the AAC governorship candidate was gaining a reputation for serial-lying, the State PDP chairman said he was not surprised at such antics as, according to him, his emergence onto the scene was the result of an evil conspiracy to destroy the state.
He said: “You cannot get something out of nothing. A snake would always beget a long thing and no matter how much a leopard tries, it cannot wash off its black spots,” Obuah declared.
Obuah restated that PDP expected these inconsistencies as no association with Awara’s godfather and Transportation Minister tends to anything good.
The PDP chairman assured the AAC governorship candidate and his ally – the All Progressives Congress (APC) – that no plot to bulldoze the will of Rivers people would succeed, as the electorate had chosen their governor, in the person of Governor Wike.
