Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has revealed that the All Progressive Congress' presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, wooed him to join the party.





On Friday, September 23, Wike stated that Tinubu offered him a senatorial ticket, which he declined, despite the fact that Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar failed to fulfill his promise after winning the party's primary election.

He stated that he did not run in the primary to secure a vice-presidential or senatorial ticket and will remain a member of the PDP.



Wike stated;



"I did not contest to become a vice presidential candidate; I am not like others who were not serious and bought senatorial forms alongside presidential forms, which is why when Tinubu offered me a senate seat, I declined."



This comes months after some APC-elected governors met with Wike in Port Harcourt, Rivers State's capital, ahead of the 2023 elections.

What do you think of Wike's decision?

Don't forget to take advantage of NaijaBet.com political bets

It is a normal thing in politics...

Every presidential candidate is looking for a political agent in every region at least, to have confident of winning an election


If tinubu successful wooed wike in South South coupled with south west then Apc become a formidable party in the South.


That is how politics works.. it is just an offer

So where does he stand? Cos he can't be bickering and tearing down PDP, while playing the flirty, teasing young maiden with APC.

He knows he should be supporting Peter Obi, but his big ego and hate for igbos won't let him make the right choice.
