JUST IN: Wike Speaks On The Party Rivers Won’t Vote For

Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike has stated that the state will not vote for any party in the Saturday presidential election that has shown contempt for the transfer of power from North to South.

The Governor stated that voters in the state would vote in order to preserve the country’s unity, which could only be achieved through a power shift.

Wike, who described the country as diverse, assured Rivers voters that they would use their votes to preserve peace and unity and to ensure inclusivity in governance.

The Governor spoke on Saturday at the Captain Elechi Amadi Polytechnic Field, the site of the state Peoples Democratic Party’s Obio-Akpor Local Government Area campaign (PDP).

He praised Governors elected on the All Progressives Congress (APC) platform for insisting on power shifting to the South.

He stated that the APC Governors’ actions demonstrated their belief in the country’s unity and the importance of giving every section an equal stake.

The Governor, who urged vigilance, stated that those seeking to become President while undermining the citizenship of other Nigerians should understand that peace is more important than an insatiable desire for power.

According to him: “We are going to vote for the unity of Nigeria. We are going to vote for equity, fairness and justice. And that is why I salute the APC governorship who came out to say, for this country to be united, for this country to move on as one, that there is the need for power to shift.”
