Lol... How many times have Davido, Wizkid, and others informed the state governors of the states they performed?!!

In America, does a Senator in Alaska have to inform state governors in every state they visit?!!


A lot of you Nigerians will just misyarn, and start using weird justifications to cover up your goof.

Funny country and citizens. grin
I wish ur sentiments good luck.

I don't have your time...!

In the same post you quoted, I asked... How many times have they notified Wike in Abuja that they are visiting?!! Do you know how many governors and top people troop into Abuja daily and weekly?!!

A governor visiting is one thing, but a private citizen is another thing!


Even Davido, Wizkid, Flavour, etc, should also queue up to inform state governors before coming to states for shows na.


It won't kill you people to accept or admit that your dull governor misyarned... Nor be every goof done by APC leaders una go dey defend like Z0mbee na.

If there is a constitutional provision that mandates private citizens to inform state governors before visiting, then show it to me instead of tossing empty insults.
someof you lack brain cells. please tell me where he said "dont come to Edo state"? What he said was "notify me otherwise i cant guarantee your security". Too many so called emotionally unstable supposedly educated people who do not understand English.

Peter O I is not an ordinary citizen you full!

, this is not where a Presidential Candidate will be carrying tray to serve food. No no no, and you know this is pretence. How long will you keep serving the food, how long? As a President, then you will now be serving food and Nigerians will be laughing, Oh, how humble, who told you he meant it, who told you that? and you people give audience to that kind of thing.


Wike get bad mouth sha..

Obidients crew will jot sleep well tonight

Truly said. Mr Obi as a political figure should rightly inform the governor of his intention to visit his state. That's protocol and courtesy.

Lol... Context is everything, and words spoken by a public official especially governor are subject to wide interpretations.

If he didn't mean something more sinister and mischievous, he should have simply pointed it out initially.

Your vigorous defense of the id*ot in office can only mean one thing; you feel a politically motivated need to protect his nonexistent dignity.


You need to take several seats, sir. grin

Wike should stop this ogogoro behavior. We know he has invested heavily in the current calamitous Edo State government and wants to reap

We have laws

There’s nothing wrong with informing a governor about a visit, it’s simply a matter of courtesy.

However, the situation here is different. The governor is acting as though it's a right that he must grant permission, and Nigerians are rightly pointing out that it is not. By issuing such threats, he is infringing on Peter Obi’s right to freedom of movement, as enshrined in our Constitution.
Don’t mind the man. He only deceived his very gullible supporters. Obi visited Wike because they were politicking. Obj wanted to get votes from Rivers state and thought that Wike as the governor would offer him support. In that event, Obi certainly would notify him of his arrival to visit Wike and the state.

It is so sad that politicians like Wike keep making living difficult for Nigerians. So is Wike insinuating that as a Nigerian, Obi does not have the right to reside in Edo state? As the FCT minister, does Wike have to inform him when he goes to the FCT? How many times did Obi inform him as the sitting Governor prior to arriving in the state? Does Obi have to inform Tinubu that he is visiting the FCT?
I wonder how a man who’s wife is a judge of the court of appeal could make such a disgraceful comment. There’s no law that stipulates that a politician of Obi’s level must inform the Governor of his arrival. Again, seeing such a violent man as that Governor, how are we sure that Obi did not inform him prior to his arrival?

The bitterness of that Governor is that Obi defeated BAT/APC in the last Presidential election. He promised BAT 2.5 million votes in 2027, while he did not make up to 350k votes in his own election. No be yeye be that?

I now understand why APC politicians are jealous.
Is Wike an APC politician? Obi is everywhere but will still end up the undisputed twitter president in 2027 as usual.

He must be right in the sight of Wike. I would have been surprised if he had said otherwise.

Citizens of Nigeria are free to move anywhere within Nigeria, except when anyone feels like informing one another.
It's not compulsory to inform anyone that one is coming anywhere.

Any wonder that an Atiku left the PDP ?
The PDP proved itself a weak party when it did not expel a Wike who obviously worked against them in the 2023 election .
Good thing we now have the ADC .
Nonsense and ingredients !

Which business? With aggressive supporters of different political party? If he comes for buying and selling no one will know, but for political campaigns programmes that can lead to supporters fighting? If he didn't informed him, he should accept the consequences.

People like Wike should not be in politics in a normal and civilized Country. If not that Nigeria is not a normal Country, how can someone like Wike be a minister
