Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has said that the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, is plunging the nation into deep monumental corruption.
Wike raised this alarm at the Government House, Umuahia, Abia State, during a State visit, where he inaugurated construction equipment, and also held a meeting with Governor Okezie Ikpeazu.
This came against the backdrop of the mind-blogging $26 billion monumental corruption unveiled in the leaked memo of the Minister of State for Petroleum, Ibe Kachiku.

Wike said: “When they said Judges were accused of corruption, they were told to step aside. They have not told anyone to step aside, so that they can conclude the investigation. When you are in office, the investigation will be compromised.
“It is for Nigerians to see. Are we fighting corruption? The corruption they are fighting is against some people who are their opponents. All of us are victims. I have never seen this kind of scandal in all my political career. We have never heard of it like this.
“What about this $26 billion (N9 trillion) contract scam, and nobody is talking. Everywhere is quiet.”
He added that the anti-corruption fight is simply aimed at brow-beating the opposition, because the APC has metamorphosed into a monumental failure.
“So many promises were made, but none has been fulfilled. Every day, what they have to say is corruption, corruption, no other statement.
“Corruption from day one, and corruption till the day they will leave office. What have they achieved? No roads, no infrastructure. I could not come to Abia by road. It is not possible”, he said.
The Governor further stated that the PDP was ready to rescue Nigerians from the failure and under-development foisted on them by the APC.
