The South-South chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Saturday said the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, will continue to be a celebrated leader.

The PDP National Vice Chairman (South South), Chief Dan Osi Orbih, remarked while commending the University of Port Harcourt, UNIPORT, for conferring the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Science on Wike.

Orbih said the award was deserved and a recognition of Wike’s contribution to the advancement of purposeful governance and infrastructural development.

“We in the PDP in the South South are proud of the FCT Minister and his achievements, relentless pursuit of progress, and uncompromising loyalty to the ideals of good governance as well as democratic leadership.
