Amaechi’s Ally And APC Spokesman In Rivers Dumps  Party For PDP

Chris Finebone, a close political associate of Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has dumped the ruling All Progressive Congress for the People’s Democratic Party in Rivers State.

Until his defection, Finebone was the Publicity Secretary of the state chapter of APC.

According to Daily Trust, Finebone officially made known his intention to exit the APC in the early hours of Friday. He was received into the main opposition party by the state governor, Nyesom Wike.

Meanwhile, Nyesom Wike has promised to award the contract for the construction of Opobo Ring Road before he leaves office in 2023.

Wike stated this when he received Finebone and Davies Ibiamu Ikanya at his residence on Thursday evening.

In response to comments made by Finebone, Wike said: “I will award the contract for the Opobo Ring Road and ensure that the money to pay is made available before I leave office in May, 2023.

“It is God that has made your son to be the governorship candidate of our Party. The same God will make him win to His glory. I did not plan it but God did it. Opobo people should be thanking God for his mercies,” Wike declared.
