A non-profit advocacy organisation based in Port Harcourt, Rivers state, Centre for Public Trust (CPT), has berated Honourable Chidi Llyod for defecting to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Lloyd announced his decision to dump the All Progressives Congress (APC) at a reception held in his honour Governor Nyesom Wike at Government House, Port Harcourt. Llyod is a former leader of the Rivers state House of Assembly and former director-general of the APC governorship campaign organization. In a chat with journalists in Port Harcourt on Monday, August 24, the coordinator of Rivers state chapter of CPT, Barrister Sotonye Douglas, described Lloyd as “an ingrate who has benefited immensely from the minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, but yet continued to secretly collect money from Governor Wike.” Read also Kogi guber: Huge number of APC aspirants is due to my efforts, says Gov Bello Douglas continued: “Many people warned Amaechi about Chidi Lloyd but he did not listen. He is a stomach politician masquerading as an academic. He goes around trying to hoodwink people with his procured degree. “Everyone in Rivers state knows that whatever Chidi is today is as a result of the benevolence of Amaechi. “Every time evidence of his betrayal is leaked to the social media, he will deny and start shedding crocodile tears. His exit will be of no consequence beyond his ward. He will soon come begging again when the momentum of 2023 will start building. “Rivers people must now see Chidi Lloyd as who he is - a man who is available to be procured by the highest bidder.” The group called on members of APC in Rivers state to “unite against the political high-handedness and authoritarianism presided over by Nyesom Wike in Rivers state.” Read also Fact check: How true is the claim that Ogun guber election should be declared inconclusive?
