The senator representing Rivers
South East senatorial district, Magnus Abe, has declared that he would not
leave the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Sen. Abe on Tuesday, during a
media interaction in Port Harcourt, Rivers State maintained his loyalty to the
party despite crisis rocking it
He blamed party leaders for
crisis in the party, while calling on Rivers State politicians to shun party
affiliations and embrace peace to develop the state.
He said: “Let me say it clearly,
that I am one of the founding fathers of APC in the State. APC is not a
political party. It is more than a political party. What is happening in the
party is that the people, who should be neutral appeared to have taken sides.
“We will continue to look up to
the leaders of the party to make things happen. The party is committed to make
things happen. So, if I leave it, where will I go?
“There is absolutely no
possibility that people will leave where they want things happen, to where such
philosophy does not exist. There is nothing that will make us leave where we
believe things would happen”, the lawmaker stressed.
On tussle of power between
Minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi and Governor Nyesom Wike, Sen. Abe
said he was in support of anything that was for the good of the state.
“Anything the governor does that
is positive and can improve the state, I am in support of it.
“Anything the Minister of
Transportation (Rotimi Amaechi), says that can improve the state, I support
it”, he added.
