Wike Denies Being Offered Senatorial Ticket By Tinubu by Yoruba1stson: 9:33pm On Sep 24, 2022
Governor Nyesom Wike has refuted reports suggesting that the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu offered him a senatorial ticket to defect to the party after the Rivers State leader lost the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP)’s presidential primary poll.
The reports had claimed that Wike made the comment during a media chat on Friday but the governor’s media aide Kelvin Ebiri says the stories are “baseless”.
“We wish to state emphatically that this news is false, baseless, and ludicrous as the Rivers State governor throughout the media chat never mentioned the name of the APC presidential candidate or
alluded to him offering him a senatorial ticket,”
he said.

Ebiri also shared a transcript of the media parley where the governor made a comment about senatorial form as thus: “’First of all, this is how you know those who are prepared to run an election.
Some of them collected presidential forms and at the same time collected senatorial forms. You’ll know that those people are not serious to run.
“’I never collected senatorial form. Even after the whole thing, people said come and go for Senate, I said no. I won’t do that. I’ve already made a commitment that this Senate ticket should be zoned to this area (Etche) because they’ve never had it before. I must not be in power.’”
He added that “in an era of the increasingly divisive political climate, the tendency to pervert the truth is extremely high. It is on this basis that we wish to remind journalists that journalism’s first obligation is to the truth.
“At this critical juncture in our nation, we wish to remind journalists that getting the facts right is the cardinal principle of journalism. Journalists are enjoined to always strive for accuracy and give all the relevant facts in their reports. We, therefore, urge the unsuspecting public not to give any credence to these false, baseless, and ill-motivated reports.”

Wike is more popular in Nigeria than Atiku, Okowa and Ayu put together.

Whether you said it or not is inconsequential. Both of you have only two votes.

BAT has been meeting and talking with heavy weights in Nigeria. Same with Atiku. Their thinking is that the old order still retains. Where one big politician uses money to brain wash electorates and manipulate elections.
By the grace of Almighty God and the mercy of Allah, all you guys bus stop is here.

Iran is already protesting to their freedom. Many nations have freed themselves and the great God will free us and make you guys understand that your manipulations have ended. Enough is enough.
