ENUGU, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- Rivers State Governor and a former presidential aspirant under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Nyesom Wike, has alleged that the party’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, is very corrupt.
Governor Wike in a media chat with few television stations on Friday, said Ayu collected N1 billion from a presidential candidate.
Wike said he was ready to mention the very candidate whom the party’s Chairman received the money from if the need be.
He said, “Ayu is very corrupt. He cannot deny the fact that he is very corrupt.
“Ayu collected N1 billion from Lagos. He collected 1bn from a presidential candidate and if he denies it, I will name who gave him the money.
“Ayu met one of the presidential candidates and told him he doesn’t think the governors were ready to sponsor the party’s convention and he was given N1 billion.
“That money is not in the party’s coffers. I can tell you the name of the businessmen who were present when he collected the money.”
