Wike To Support Tinubu? – Details Emerge As Umahi Reunites With Wike

Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State says the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, does not need the logistical support of Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike.

Tinubu, according to Umahi, needs the votes of the people of the oil-rich state.

Umahi, an APC governor and one of Tinubu’s South-East campaign coordinators, made this known on Tuesday when he commissioned the Akpabu-Itu-Umudiogha road in Rivers’ Emohua Local Government Area at Wike’s invitation.

“You are a doer of promise,” Umahi told Wike. “When you say you will give logistics support, you will but in APC, we don’t need logistics support, we need votes, just for the presidential one only, please.

“All I am asking is that presidential one, that presidential one keep it for Asiwaju (Tinubu) and Asiwaju will be coming here to solicit votes.”

Wike, a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governor who is feuding with his party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, had promised logistics support for the campaigns of the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and his New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) counterpart, Rabiu Kwankwaso, who recently commissioned projects in Rivers.

With the 2023 presidential election just three months away, there are concerns that intra-party squabbles between Wike and Atiku over the chairmanship of Iyorchia Ayu will harm Wike’s chances in the polls next February.

Wike and four other PDP governors, known as the G5 or the Integrity Group, want Benue-born Ayu to step down in order for a southerner to take over the party’s dominance in the north.
