A group, the Northern Progressives Elements, and Friends of Wike, have purchased the Expression of Interest and Nomination Forms for Governor of Rivers State.
The group led by Senator Sulieman Nazif said they decided to purchase the forms for the governor because of their belief in the Wike’s love for the country.
Speaking at the presentation in Abuja, Wike stated that he has the capacity to address Nigeria’s insecurity and economic problems.
Wike said: “They have tried it with me. They know that they can never succeed. They did it in Rivers State, we said ‘no, it will never work.’ And it didn’t work. If you give us the ticket, go home and sleep.”
Speaking at the event, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State thanked the Northern group for purchasing the form for Wike.
He stated that Nigeria needs an energetic leader and not tired individuals to govern its affairs.
