When it comes to class and opulence, Gov. Wike of Rivers state stands tall among others in Nigeria. The governor of the oil-rich state is someone who likes to go for something of class and an item of quality. Having to review Pres. Buhari's official car in our earlier post, we deemed it fit to take a step further to consider the governors' beast and what their official cars look like. A closer look at Gov. Wike's convey shows that he uses Range Rover Vogue as his official car, we took a step further by reviewing this beast and why it's so unique to be an official car for a governor.

Meanwhile, Rivers State House of Assembly approved the purchase.
