Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has stated that the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar and the party don't want him to campaign for them in the 2023 election.
Wike made the comment on Monday while commissioning of the PDP governorship campaign office and inauguration of the PDP campaign council in Port Harcourt.
According to the governor, Atiku appointed some members of the party in Rivers State into his campaign council without his (Wike's) input.
Wike stated that Atiku's action means that he doesn't want the governor and the people of Rivers to campaign for him in the presidential election.
"The presidential candidate entered Rivers State and picked those he wants to pick without the contribution of the governor.
“So they said they don’t need me to campaign for them, that they don’t want Rivers people to campaign for them, will you force yourself?
“I have never seen how people will disrespect a state like Rivers State and go and choose those who are enemies of the state.
“So they don’t want us to campaign, let’s campaign for those who want us to campaign for them.”
