Action Alliance (AA) party has expressed optimism in its plans to take over Rivers State in 2023.
The party said it has selected sellable candidates with the right pedigree to occupy various offices across the state ahead of the 2023 general elections.
Speaking at the thanksgiving ceremony held in honour of Dr. Dawari George, following his emergence as Rivers AA governorship candidate, the National Chairman of AA, Kenneth Udeze, explained that Rivers state held a reasonable amount of resources needed to sustain the country.
“Most people in Rivers State know Dawari George very well. You know were he is coming from and you know where he is today. So we have given you the opportunity to change the government in Rivers.”
“Rivers is the state that takes care of Nigeria. Talk about payment of salaries, talk about everything that has to do with current expenditures at the federal government level.
“Majority of the things that happen in this country, all the mansions you see over there in the North, it is as a result of the resources of Rivets State and some other states in the South-South.
“So, every political party, every reasonable person must make sure they have interest in Rivers. We know that this state has been feeding Nigeria. We cannot take it away from them, reason we are very serious to capture this state,” Udeze stated.
He noted that with the emergence of Dr Dawari, “the party is ready to capture Rivers and form a government,” in 2023.
