“On Atiku, I will speak soon and Nigerians will know the actual truth of all that has transpired in the PDP in recent times.
Atiku, had in an interview on Arise TV on Friday, said he chose who he felt could deliver among the nominees that were presented to him. He added that Wike was not rejected and that he only picked who could deliver.
Atiku said, “I didn’t reject Wike, I picked who can deliver. Wike is brilliant and tenacious. Going by history, I picked an Igbo as running mate in 2007, in 2019. I still picked an Igbo as running mate for 2023.
“The committee that presented the three nominees was chaired by the Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom. They recommended three people, so I picked one. People should be fair to me and state the facts.”
In another report Nyesom Wike had fingered the state’s former governor Chibuike Amaechi and the All Progressives Congress (APC) Rivers governorship candidate, Tonye Cole, as individuals who have been clearly identified to have allegedly looted and are still looting from the state’s resources.
Governor Nyesom Wike had made this claim on Thursday shortly after he completed the signing the contract for the construction of the eleventh and twelfth flyover bridges and the dualisation of Azikiwe Street-Iloabuchi Road in Port Harcourt between the state government and Julius Berger Nigeria PLC at Government House, Port Harcourt.
He had clearly reiterated that the former minster, Amaechi and Cole would face trial even if the pair brought 500 Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SANs).
