“Our South-South zonal congress that was held must be upheld. There’s no doubt, no two ways about it.
“Now, when we were doing our South-South congress, the acting National Chairman claimed that the PDP governors were not in support of the national congress. Where are the PDP governors now? Our congress was held in Calabar, and there’s nothing anybody can tell us.
“If they want another round of crisis, so be it. Our congress was held, and Chief Dan Orbih emerged as the National Vice Chairman from the congress. And the court allowed for Congress to hold,” Wike said.
