Rivers State Deputy Governor, Mr. Tele Ikuru has declared that all Rivers State people must rise up to fight the evil that has befallen the state under the present leadership in the state.
This is even as the Rivers State PDP governorship candidate, Mr. Nyesom Ezenwo Wike described the defection of the deputy governor was an added value to the reclamation of the state from the APC.
Ikuru urged the people to stand up for the ideals of Rivers State, even if it meant risking their lives in the process.
He said: “What is happening today, if we allow it to go unchallenged, we will suffer it to the fourth generation”.

He said when he was deceived out of the PDP, he thought it was for the good of Rivers State, stressing that he finally discovered that the entire plot was to promote the ambition of one man.
In his remarks, Wike said that the PDP was fully on ground in the state and will ensure the victory of President Goodluck Jonathan.
He said that Rivers State and the South-South remained committed to the second term of President because the state had supported other regions in the past and it was time for the South-South to reap the benefit
