Gov Wike spends days and nights hugging TV cameras and lamenting profusely about injustice in the PDP. But he doesn’t tell his audience and backup singers that the deciding injury happened when Atiku jilted him for Okowa. After all, Wike, who refused Power shift in 2015 to stubbornly succeed another Ikwerre man in Rivers state, rebuffing all equitable efforts to transfer power to other zones, has no moral right to discuss power rotation.

It’s comical watching Wike preach sermons on equity and power rotation. Rivers state cried for power rotation in 2015. Had Atiku chosen Wike, Ayu would have been acceptable, and anybody demanding Ayu’s resignation would have met Wike’s venom. Today, Wike wants Ayu booted out so he can regain control of the party with another lackey and fix a leash on the candidate.

When Wike discusses the current power structure in the PDP, he deliberately omits Gov Okowa and mentions only Atiku, Ayu and Tambuwal. Okowa isn’t thuggish, so Wike won’t reckon with him. Well, he has even declared on TV that Okowa paid Atiku. Blackmailing fellow governors means boldness. The only saint in the PDP is Wike, who wooed northern delegates with his academic credentials rather than money.

Clowning is taking centre stage as diligence. Hypocrisy now wears garish suits and roams as the champion of social justice, ready to dance in self-adulation. Opportunism has joined the parade, and it marches around as equity croaking for inclusiveness. Rascality has adorned the mask of courage, and it is more than willing to guttersnipe, blackmail and tarnish.

When will the charade end? And who knows where Wike and his political gang will meet this weekend? They have been to Madrid and Turkey. They have been to London too many times. They could be flying to California to continue their fight for justice for the ordinary man. These days, it appears the fight for the ordinary man is best done in shiny suits with a backup choir singing hallelujah as the god of small things lobs bricks at his political opponents. The last time Ortom appeared on Tv, he wore a crazy-coloured suit.

If Wike were interested in true justice, he would have supported the call for power to shift not just to the South but to the Southeast. But Wike, who champions self-interest as justice, wouldn’t have that. Wike rightly insists a northerner shouldn’t succeed a northerner, but did he ever wonder why a man from the Southsouth should rule when a man from south South ruled the last time power came down south?

Why didn’t he remember that his zone had produced a president? And since he claims he is not Igbo, and couldn’t have hidden under the Igbo presidency project to push his ambitions, he ought not to have contested. Why can’t Wike see that his failure to come all out for equity, his willingness to shortchange the Southeast, was the main reason the ticket was thrown open? Hadn’t Wike preached electability instead of inclusion and equity when equity meant Southeast or Igbo presidency?

Wike submitted to the primaries, contested and lost, yet he wouldn’t even want another qualified Igbo man to be vice president. If Wike were fighting for Justice, shouldn’t he have fought for his friend Ikpeazu PhD or another member of his gang to be VP? Wike’s idea of justice is underlined by opportunism and self-service. Wike fought for half a power shift because with Rivers’ financial muscle, Wike would have been the clear favourite and beneficiary. It has always been about Wike.

Now, Wike is restless. The first problem for Wike is that his options are few. The stooge he wants to install as governor in Rivers is wanted by the EFCC. He must keep him in holes and caves, out of the reach of the claws of the prowling Eagle. He must support him trenchantly to win him immunity so that the can of the investigation into the 117 billion naira money laundering matter can be kicked further down the road.

Wike can’t openly defect to the APC or Labour party. That will leave the electorate jaded. But having sworn never to leave the PDP, it now appears he has to remain a chameleon until he chooses whether to swallow his pride or accept some face-saving crumbs and support Atiku; or stay under the umbrella and damage PDP’s presidential quest from within. To play a mole from within will be humbling because he can’t do it loquaciously.

If he stays in the PDP and supports Asiwaju, he might strengthen Tonye Cole inadvertently and risk temporary political oblivion. Staying in the PDP and supporting Obi might leave him with the least damage politically. The second problem is that Atiku appears fairly fed up with the antics of a loudmouthed politician who was perhaps a jobless graduate when Atiku was aspiring to be president in 1992, and who was probably a Port Harcourt political hustler / peripatetic contractor when Atiku was vice president in 1999. If Atiku wins, Wike might reap cold political consequences even if Wike repents today. We all know the young can grow rapidly, but nothing rankles the elderly to wing-clipping vengeance more than witnessing the humiliating self-indulgent rascality of moneyed youths.

On the day of judgment, we shall know how much Rivers state spent on media during the reign of this self-acclaimed important governor. Wike can summon and fly in the senior executives of the four largest television houses in the country to Portharcourt to watch him belch and rehash worn-out gossips. The chat was a gossip session, an obsequious banter with riverine Jeriamiah dropping rumours and dripping nuggets of blackmail without ‘receipts’.

It has become a habit of presumptuousness, petulance and profligacy. And perfidy. When he isn’t alleging that his party chairman collected a one billion naira bribe, he is concocting tales about the romantic interests of his former boss. When he isn’t insinuating that the presidency is engaging in anti-party activity, he alleges that Tinubu might have toyed with it. The same hackneyed beer parlour tales he has told at project commissioning ceremonies with backup singers. Atiku was perhaps so tired of the bickering he left the country and returned to his country home in Dubai.

As a matter of urgency, some elder statesmen must reach Atiku to accommodate Wike so that crayfish-bending circumstances don’t convert a serious governor into a flippant talebearer. We can be our brother’s keeper.

Any sane Nigerian that will vote for Peter Obi is an enemy of this Country.

Peter Obi and his useless Obidient's urchins are even worse than Mc Oluomo and the wrath of the Agbero's we are experiencing here in Lagos.

A vote for Peter Obi means more Hardship, Suffering, Hunger, Depression, Killings and insecurity in Nigeria.

Peter Obi has absolutely nothing to offer except his usual Lies like the useless[b] Lai Muhammed[/b] .

We need both financial and economic growth in our Country right now and Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the best candidate for this Job.

A vote for Bola Ahmed Tinubu means Steady electricity, better education for our youths and automatic employments for our graduates, better welfare and at least our naira will regain it's strength back to 1naira per 1dollar .

Only Tinubu can make this happen not Peter Obi and his good for nothing Obidient's urchins.

Vote Wisely my brothers and sisters.

Wike like every politician is a greedy, selfish man....
Only you was instrumental to the sack of 3 past chairman.
Ayu will not resign let him do his worst.
Presently in Rivers, both the State chairman and his guber candidate is from same senatorial zone.

In wike's voice"As e dey pain them, e dey sweet us".

Nigerians need to know that the concern of Governor Wike is not the interest of the South as been postulated by him and his friends but a personal battle to cover up his misdemeanours”

He stressed that the Governor has been shopping around and talking with Presidential Candidates of APC, Labour and PDP, but has allegedly signed a pact with Tinubu.

“In the first instance, why is Governor Wike always at the forefront of championing the removal of party chairmen at any given opportunity?

Recall that in 2016 after the loss of the PDP in the 2015 general elections, it was Governor Wike who orchestrated the installation of Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as chairman of the party who nearly destabilized the party, except for the Supreme Court ruling of July 12, 2017.

“In the 2017 National Convention of the party, the same Governor Wike, denied Chief Bode George, Chief Olagunsoye Oyinlola and others from the South West from producing the National Chairmanship of the party when the PDP zoned the position to the south and championed the installation of his brother, Prince Uche Secondus as Chairman of the party.

“Before Prince Secondus could complete his tenure, Governor Wike again moved for his removal to pave way for his personal and selfish interest of campaigning for a southern president and later installed Senator Iyorchia Ayu as Chairman of the party.

“Today, the same Governor is calling for the removal of Senator Ayu. Is he the only person in the PDP?

“We, therefore, call on the leadership of the party and the Presidential Candidate to go ahead with its scheduled campaigns.

“The group also advised party members and supporters nationwide not to be distracted by Governor Wike’s activities, saying that the governor is already carrying out the job assigned to him by Bola Tinubu”.

if he's just a rabble rouser , Atiku and paid hacks like you won't be having sleepless nights and high blood pressure, do you think wike is alone? Wike is the face of the resistance in the party, powerful figures like OBJ, GEJ, Ibori, ladoja and a lot of people you're not seeing on Media are solidly behind him, it's just a recompense of what he did to GEJ in 2015, yes he might win but nature is not going to make it an easy ride..

LMAO, when last has the Woke spoken to GEJ?

Wike would not be crying if he got that VP slot, but he lost it and then started proving that Atiku made a wide choice not choosing him as his running mate.

When the whole fracas started, many of us southern PDP members were with Wike as our leader, but the continued crying and direct moves to destabilize the party mad us let him be.

He's loosing fans day after day, even the dumb obimumus following him will gnash their teeth when he declares for a Tinubu presidency. Even some of his fellow "super 5" governors will abandon him.

There's a lot going on behind the scene that you're not aware of, if you watched his media chat yesterday, when the journalist alleged that some of the members in his camp were tired of the fight, he boldly asked them to name the members, he said the Atiku camp thought he had divided his camp when he asked some of them to send in names from their states to be added to the campaign council, after sending the names, they all converge to withdraw from the council, he also said they are very powerful members in his group that we don't see or hear about, that everybody in his camp has a role to play, there are those they've instructed not to speak. You can watch the video to confirm all I just wrote. Now will be a bad time for GEJ to be seen with wike, a lot is happening that you guys do not know about.. wike is just the face of the movement .

And if I may ask you, if wike had won do you think Atiku would have stayed back? Atiku is also selfish and callous, some of you so called southern PDP members have short memories that's why you're never united and they take you for a ride..

So you want to extricate MC oluomo tinubu's hitman from him?

You should try harder because Tinubu won't approve of this your sorrowful passion.

I pity Wike because he will be so irrelevant in 2023 when he leaves office. His only redeeming image now is to be OBIdient and drop his rascality and uncouth behavior in PDP. That's the only way he can still face anyone to talk after he leaves office.

Wike is on a vengeance mission. Even if Ayu resigns and all of Wike's demands are met, he'll still sabotage PDP and do everything possible for them to lose. That's how very bitter he's right now.

Hope both the writer and the poster has up to 500,000 votes to deliver to Atiku?

If not, you guys should be begging, this election that 10votes will be very important
