A former member of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyd, says “internally displaced politicians” are behind the political crisis in the oil-rich South-South state.

Lloyd was a guest on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Monday.

Rivers has been a hotbed of political imbroglio in the last few months with Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, going their separate ways.

The situation has since torn the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state apart, with some being in Wike’s camp and others in Fubara’s.
