The PDP accused the APC of using its influence to destabilize the party in Rivers State and force Fubara’s defection.
The PDP condemned the APC’s actions, stating that they pose a serious threat to Nigeria’s democracy.
The PDP expressed pity for Fubara, stating that his troubles were self-inflicted and that he had willingly taken the path that led to his current predicament.
