Governor Wike alleged that some of the PDP leaders in the state were merely house boys in Abuja and do nothing other than following leaders around.
Governor Wike is alleged to be referring to members of the party in Rivers State who are been loyal to the PDP Presidential candidate.
He said, “as people who want the party or your own candidate to win an election, what role are you playing in your state to make sure your party wins the election?
“How many people have you been able to galvanize and mobilize to leave the other parties and join your party to show that you’re committed and ready to make your party win the election?
“It’s not to go to Abuja and say all kinds of things. Come home and mobilize and let us see the capacity that you have. That’s what politics is all about, it is not following people up and down.
“Anywhere any true Rivers man is, you must show that you’re important and have something to offer.
“Don’t go and begin to do as a house boy. We are not known to be House boys.
Governor Wike also challenged leaders of the PDP in other states of the country to deliver their own states to the party when the election comes and not to depend on votes from Rivers State.
