Mr. Nyesom Wike, Rivers State Peoples Democratic Party Governorship Candidate has affirmed that the party is ready to appoint a female running mate.
Wike made this statement at Omagwa, Ikwerre LGA on Christmas Day. He said “We are getting women involved in decision making of the state. The campaign is now for women to take to the next level. We have gone beyond the stage of just sharing wrapper to women as empowerment.
“This is a new era in Rivers State. The faith of Rivers people does not lie in the opposition All Progressives Congress, APC. We are for the PDP all the way.”
He also added that the female deputy will be named next week Tuesday.
