PDP Crisis: I Did Not Bath For Three Days Over Edo Election – Wike To Obaseki by Kuginzi(op): 7:51pm On Mar 14, 2022
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has told his Edo State counterpart, Godwin Obaseki that they are not in the same class.

Obaseki, while reacting to a scathing attack launched against his Deputy, Phillip Shaibu by Governor Wike, had slammed the Rivers Governor, describing him as a bully.

Obaseki had complained that members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP who defected from the All Progressives Congress, APC in Edo were not happy and do not feel accepted into the new party.

Obaseki, in a statement on Monday also noted that Nigeria needed strong democratic institutions and not strong men, adding that the main opposition party needs to position itself to reclaim power in 2023.

But Wike, in his reaction, said the Edo State Governor was only ranting, saying governance was about feeling and touching, and not a memorandum of understanding.

Wike said Obaseki should not come close to him in terms of achievements, disclosing that while in Edo State for the 2020 governorship election, he did not take his bath for three days, for reasons he did not explain.

Wike highlighted his contribution to the efforts that led to Obaseki’s re-election, having served as the Director-General (DG) of his campaign organisation in 2020.

Let me clearly say without any apology to anybody that one of the problems in this country is leadership – people who cannot stand firm and say: this is white; this is black at all times,” the Rivers governor said.

“I am not in the class of Obaseki, never! We are not the same, we can’t be the same. I was the DG of his campaign, I went there (to Edo) for three days. I stayed there without having my bath. I have never seen somebody like that in my life – a serial betrayer.

Let me tell you Obaseki, I know your cohorts and I will smoke all of you out. This is not the Benin artefact that you were challenging the Oba (of Benin), this is politics. Obaseki, I have more stake in PDP than you. I have fought for this party, mention one thing that you have done for the PDP.,” Wike said while addressing a crowd at the commissioning of a secondary school in Rivers State on Monday.

So Obaseki and Shuibu thinks that those PDP aspirant that step down for them are fools? If Shuibu is despirate to take over from Obaseki he should declare his intentions to run and not threatening PDP.

As Governor, Obaseki is leader of the party in Edo state just like Wike is the party leader in Rivers state. Wike cannot win this battle, the best he can do is to scatter everything which will ensure that APC recaptures Edo state cool

I am beginning to have a lot of respect for Wike. To be fair to him he has been one of the most consistent and courageous governors from PDP. While others were romancing Buhari he stood firm in opposition even at the risk of losing elections. Its obvious he is a principled man unlike most of those other governors who are only interested in their belly. 7years after Jonathan left office he is still on his side. Not once has he betrayed Jonathan or PDP even when under pressure. Principled men like him are what Nigeria needs, not those LIARS and PROPAGANDISTS. So many Nigerian politicians are Judases but not Wike.

cool




Wike has nothing to loose if he joins Obaseki to betray the trust of PDP loyalist in Edo and allow APC decampees to takeover and sideline 20 years Edo PDP Faithfulls

But a real man fights for the oppressed and always keeps to his words

I don't support Wike joining issues with Obaseki and that little Shuabu , he is bigger and better than that...

Wike needs to learn alot from Bola Ahmed Tinubu on how to be tactful in his battle

Aregbesola and Fayemi did more to spite Tinubu, but Tinubu kept shut as a leader

On this issue the gov. behaving like the west reacting to russia.
He refuse to address the concern of obaseki and his followers. They are saying they are marginalized in pdp.
But instead wike abusing them. That is not good enough.

Hope the pdp national leaders take note of what obaseki and his followers are complain about.

Call Wike whatever you like but only few Nigerian politicians are loyal and faithful like him. Even since Jonathan left office, Wike has remained faithful to him and PDP while some lilly-livered politicians are busy cross carpeting to APC to save their sorry ass and romance the president. Wike na confirm man
