The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has begun moves towards an attempt to dislodge the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as ruling party in Rivers State.
Ganduje in the past week, sent a signal when he hosted the leadership of Senator Magnus Abe’s group in his office at the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja.
At the meeting, Ganduje stated that an agreement of the three major blocks of APC in the state coming together is imminent, therefore, the ruling PDP in the state would soon be on the way out.
According to the APC chairman, “We have now come to the end of the problem in APC Rivers State, as the three major blocks have now come to work together to build APC that we know in Rivers State.

“The three blocks are the APC members that have been there despite all that happened. The second is the group of those who broke away from APC for one reason or the other and have decided to come back to the fold. That block is very strong and that shows hope and the third block is the block coming from the PDP. This is from the wind that we have seen so far.”
Filled with confidence, the former Kano state governor explained that:
“I believe this is happening due to our political dexterity. We have been able to manage the three major blocks. As of now, they could be seen as a mixture but when we come in properly, they will become a compound. You know the difference between a mixture and a compound. In a mixture, when the wind comes, the particles disappear and leave the substance empty, while in a compound any portion you touch has the same texture and quality that stands firm.
“Therefore, we believe that APC will become a compound in Rivers State insha Allahu.”
