The President–elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has commended the support of the Rivers state governor, Nyesome Wike, during the presidential election.

He praised Wike’s principle and integrity, noting that the governor promoted unity and fairness during the election.

Tinubu who spoke during the commissioning of the Raumuokwuta/Rumuola flyover bridge in Port Harcourt, noted that he wouldn’t have won if not for Wike’s support.

His words: “I went through a gruesome campaign, fought hard, supported by many of you and I won. Fair and square. Nyesom, I say thank you for your contribution to my victory. I couldn’t have done it without some structural support as not describable in a flyover,” he said.

“In his excellency, I see a man of principle. He took a principled stance that the presidency must come to the south and he had the courage to stand by his own conviction not minding whose ox was gored.

“He is indeed a man of great integrity, he didn’t choose to serve his own interest, not about him but the interest of the nation. You promoted unity, you promoted fairness, you championed justice. Thank you.”

IyaebeTheGreat:
Exactly but Asiwaju should not bring him close, you don't trust such kind of person politically, you use and dump them

OneTemplate:
Tinubu manages people well. I don't think Wike is as bad as some make him out to be but Tinubu is smart and tactile enough to ensure Wike is treated as a respected friend of his government while still deploying the best hands to run the Nation with him which may not include Wike.

Tntsi:
Awon election riggers/stealers association comementing each other.
Not to worry, the mandate will be returned.

The first man in Nigeria's history to have his gubernatorial mandate returned back to him not ONCE but THRICE.

The first man to change the gubernatorial electoral time schedule in Nigeria.

The first man thst candidates of other political parties used his pictures and "OBIDIENT" slogan to aid their campaign.

The first man to contest for presidency under and unknown party and win against an evil corrupt twin establishment PDAPC without the backing of any serving politician.

And now,
Soon to be the first man to have his stolen presidential mandate returned to him.

I present to you, the man of destiny,
His Excellency and by the grace of God the incoming "ELECTED" not selected president.
