Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has declared that the antics of anti-democratic elements aimed at scuttling the conduct of the forthcoming 2023 general election will fail.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the governor insisted that despite their desperation, such anti-people acts will not succeed because Rivers people are fully prepared to participate in the 2023 election.
Governor Wike spoke at the campaign flag-off rally of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that held at the Kalabari National College (KNC) in Buguma City of Askari-Toru Local Government Area (ASALGA) on Monday.
He told the people of ASALGA not to allow anything trouble them, but focus on the election because the candidates they are supporting are credible and trust worthy persons who must win.
Furthermore, Governor Wike warned the governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party, (SDP) Senator Magnus Abe, to stop raising unnecessary alarm in the media because it appears he is unable to sustain his quest at soliciting acceptance of Rivers people to actualise his governorship dreams.
The Rivers State governor insisted that nobody is stopping any candidate of political parties from campaigning, but if anyone must use public facility for his campaigns then the person should abide by the law and pay the non-refundable security fee of N5 million.
Wike is a trusted smart politician. His Ace card is yet to be pulled out in this present political dispensation. Everyone that understands his game need to stop the permutation on him supporting Atiku or APC. He will shock Nigerians. Watch out.
