Several controversies appear to have trailed the Labour Party (LP) flagbearer, Peter Obi’s association with Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike<\/a>, as the party’s governorship candidate in the state, Beatrice Itubo, and some disgruntled members reacted angrily to the move to trade off Rivers LP candidates.<\/p>\n

WITHIN NIGERIA reports that Itubo has vowed never to resign for Wike’s governorship candidate, Siminialayi Fubara of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).<\/p>\n

Itubo, who expressed concern about Obi’s association with Wike, stated that the governor could not influence votes in Rivers state for him (Obi).<\/p>\n

According to her, Obi will win in Rivers state with or without Wike, noting that Wike’s promises to deliver Rivers to the people are being fulfilled.<\/p>\n

The Rivers state Labour Party governorship candidate reacted to Obi’s alleged attempt to trade the party’s candidates in the state in exchange for his victory in the 2023 general election.<\/p>\n

WITHIN NIGERIA recalls Obi’s visit to Rivers on Thursday as the governor’s guest to inaugurate the Nkpolu-Oroworokwo Flyover.<\/p>\n

Obi, in his remarks to the governor, said;<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve listened to what you said, you said I should advise Labour people that they should be careful of the state, I\u2019ll talk to them and we will negotiate. So, if we leave the State for him he will leave the centre for us. Is it not?<\/em><\/p>\n

If we leave the State for him he will leave the centre for us. So, we will negotiate it, we know you are in charge, and we will not quarrel with you, anybody who quarrels with you doesn\u2019t know what he is doing. I will not try it. I\u2019m begging, please give us this one, take the others, and we will leave it for you. I\u2019ll accommodate them in the other one.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, Itubo and other disgruntled Labour Party members reacted to the move by claiming that Obi’s statement was taken out of context.<\/p>\n

Itubo asserted that because Obi did not purchase forms for her, he would not negotiate anything on her behalf, urging disgruntled party members to interpret the statement as political.<\/p>\n

She told the Nation that;<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is a political statement. He didn\u2019t buy the form for me and I didn\u2019t buy the form for him. Everybody bought the form for themselves. So, I didn\u2019t see how he will go to negotiate for me. I am campaigning in Rivers State. If I didn\u2019t campaign, we will not be a threat. They saw us as a threat and that is why he was trying to negotiate.<\/em><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t see that as anything serious. It has not dampened anybody\u2019s morale. If there is anything, it has increased my own morale. I am the incoming Governor of Rivers State whether the devil likes it or not. It is a divine mandate. God has given me the opening and the wherewithal to work for it. Nobody can stop it.<\/em><\/p>\n

Even Wike knows that what he has is his vote. Promising people he will deliver Rivers to them he is overrating himself. Going to tell people he would deliver Rivers so he will come and carry my PVC and vote for me. He is only trying to deceive those who don\u2019t know him.<\/em><\/p>\n

With or without Wike, Peter Obi will win Rivers State. My fear is even this is fraternizing with Wike. With or without Wike, Peter Obi will win more than 70 per cent in Rivers State following the level of work we have done for him. So, I don\u2019t see Wike as a threat. As for me, I am a Government House Candidate come 2023 and I will invite you to that party.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It was\u00a0learnt that another aggrieved who pleaded anonymity also told Nations that;<\/p>\n

Obi came to Port Harcourt when Beatrice Itubo, the Governorship candidate of Labour Party in Rivers State, was still in the sickbed nursing injuries she sustained in a domestic accident. This woman has been mobilising support for him.<\/em><\/p>\n

Obi did not see any verifiable reason to at least visit the woman in the hospital rather he was comfortably at home trading the woman\u2019s ambition off with Wike all in his selfish ambition to be President.<\/em><\/p>\n

Yes, there is horse trading in politics, the honest thing would have been to see the woman, probably discuss reasons with her on the importance of working with the PDP candidate and show empathy with the woman.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Itubo while giving an update about her state of health said\u00a0\u201cOn, my domestic accident, I informed the party. Most of them called me including him to wish me\u00a0<\/em>a\u00a0speedy recovery and I think that was enough. Everybody has a way they react to issues. I am only telling them to read between the line. Some statements are political. They shouldn\u2019t take it to heart as if it is anything. The Obi that I know is wiser than that.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
