The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, says approval has been given to the Presidential Campaign Council of the Peoples Democratic Party to use the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt for the campaign rally of the party’s presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
Wike disclosed this while speaking at the flag-off of the PDP presidential campaign rally in the Oyigbo Local Government Area of the state on Friday.
He, however, warned the Director-General of the PCC in Rivers State, Dr Abiye Sekibo, not make any attempt to access or take possession of the stadium before the approved date, saying he could change his mind and withdraw the approval. Wike said, “Let me also use this opportunity to warn Abiye Sekibo; we have made approval for your presidential candidate to use Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, February 11.
“Nobody gave you one month. So, if you dare it again, to go and force yourself into the stadium, I will cancel the approval with immediate effect.
