The Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara has declared as fake the list of the People’s Democratic Party Caretaker Committee members for the state and local government areas circulating in public.
While speaking at the flag-off of the Auto Spare Parts Trading, Commercial Centre in Iriebe in Obio-Akpor Local Government Area on Thursday, the governor described the list as the handiwork of publicity seekers.
Fubara explained that the national leadership of the party had met recently and agreed that in states where the tenure of PDP executives had expired, they should continue as caretakers for the next three months.
The governor clarified that the National Executive Council did not approve that new names should be added to the already existing number of officers, or any subsisting officer(s) removed.
