BREAKING NEWS: Wike blasts Southern Governors over betrayal.

Governor of River state, Nyesom Wike blasts Southern Governor for betraying him and causing him to lose the PDP primary election to former president, Atiku Abubakar.

In Wike’s words, “We have done our part. We never betrayed anybody because it is not in our blood to betray. It is a shame to those people…Some of our Governor’s of the South that are the people they used to sabotage us. Moreover, we have shown them that we are not like them. We have capacity to do whatever is good for us.”

The Governor also went further to reveal that his decision to run for the elections was taken based on the agreement of Southern Governors.

During the event, he ended his speech on a note of happiness. According to him, running for the elections was one of his greatest happiness and being able to get votes meant he was capable.
