That a politician refused to rig an election does not mean he is not popular. Those Governors who choose to play free & fair election lost their states.They lost their state not becos they can't win through rascalitiew¹ⁿ

Wike is a criminal who uses money and touts to achieve all his mischievous act ,the reaosn why you think he is popular Under free and fair election, wike, Thiefnubuu and all these political touts wil be rusting in the jail.
This is the same Political propaganda you used on Goodluck calling him a dullard, & all sorts of evil names when he was ruling. Now,ur so called messiah Buhari came & brought us back to 1954 era, you hide ur tail in between your legs& all of a sudden lost ur voice.The same fuel subsidy Goodluck wanted to remove, but you guys carried dead box,just to mock Goodluck.Now, thiefnubuu did the same, you covered your face in shame.
The reason why Nigeria will continue to be in total darkness cos people like you always classify political rascality as being powerful.

Wike is not popular in the SS my region. Only thing that is popular is his ;
1. His greediness
2. His selfishness
3. His foolishness.
4. His Touting
All these you mentioned are equally your attributes. Someone who has over 5 girlfriends u are calling a other greedy.

One of the strongest politician from South South that people disregard is Okowa. Okowa is stronger and has more influence than all the politicians listed above by far - maybe he's not considered because he's in the opposition. What exactly did Wike do that people rate him? Turning his state to battleground because of power? He only breeder hate upon himself and nothing popular about him - he's infamous and notorious please understand the difference

Okowa that lost delta woefully and only won his lga to for atiku? Wike would have won SS for atiku

You don't use Obi to compare popularity here. Obi's case is completely a different game. Absolutely everybody from the South South and South East will lose against Obi in these regions. They only have to rig to win their local governments. Oshiomole lost Edo too. Wike lost Rivers and his rigging is the most laughable - the lost was too much that it was difficult to be rigged

Oshiomhole has never delivered Edo at the presidential level but he delivered his zone 100% to apc outside power yet okowa that was a governor and running mate failed woefully.rigging is part of Nigeria's politics.
Wike has always rigged rivers.this is how pdp has been winning rivers.you just realized because he supported APC

oga I'm from SS, and have a permanent engagement in rivers, omoku precisely, from on ground observation, wike is very popular here in South South, in fact wike is the most influential opposition from the south south.
After Akpabio, based on his office as SP, Wike is the Numero uno of SS politics as it stands.

Wike: his popularity cuts across the 6 SS states.he dominates SS politics,is loved and adored by the SS people.he controls pdp faction in cross river,sponsored ypp candidate senator oba who was in pdp,sponsored a faction of the pdp in Edo led by Dan orbih.his influence also extends to anambra apc and some northern states.

Oshiomhole: as an opposition candidate, he defeated pdp in edo.he was the second person to sack a pdp governor in the south and third overall.he is fanatically loved in the Edo north zone of Edo and large parts of edo.him and akpabio are the only ones able to deliver their districts to tinubu.oshiomhole also delivered his district to apc in 2015 and 2019.he crushed the obidient movement or tsunami in the north of Edo and humiliated shuaibu in his polling unit.

Akpabio: he delivered his zone to tinubu and overran obi in akwa ibom.he also helped to get 25% for buhari in 2029.he is madly loved in his ikot ekpene district and by virtue of being SP,he is the leader of apc in SS.

Governor Prince Otu: if not for the calabar metropolis,he would have won the southern zone for tinubu and perhaps the entire state.he is very popular.

David Lyon: he is popular in bayelsa but has failed to exert his influence since his ouster Hy the apex court.in the last two election,apc lost scandalously so his popularity is suspect.

Omo Agege: if he had returned to the senate,he would be SP.he failed to deliver for tinubu and struggled to win his zone during the guber but delivered two senate and a reps seat.

Magnus Abe: he is very popular among his ogoni people.

Kadoso Mutairu aka seunmsg: He is a very popular ApeEC chieftain with no constituency, no zone, no people. Sometimes you find him in Ibadan, at times in Lagos. He claims he to be in Abuja too.

The Edo people voted Obaseki as their governor, the same Edo people voted Peter Obi of the Labour party for president. Make no mistake, the mind of an average Edo man cant be swayed for a pot of pottage.

Emmanuel Udom is far more popular and influential in Akwa Ibom compared to Godwin Akpabio.

Furthermore Ex-Governor Ifeanyi Okowa gave Ibori the very first defeat of his political career.The APC candidate despite all the noise could not even make any headway in the Governorship elections.

Mr udom Emmanuel is never popular than Senator Godswill Akpabio.
Do you know what popularity means?
