Wike: "I Respect Chief Bola Tinubu And Will Never Malign Him" by Nemere2020(op): 4:53pm On Feb 05, 2021

I RESPECT CHIEF BOLA TINUBU AND WILL NEVER MALIGN HIM-SAYS GOVERNOR WIKE

The attention of the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, has been drawn to false assertions attributed to him in an article written in The Guardian by Emmanuel Ande on February 5, 2021, titled: " Tinubu cannot see presidency gate in 2023, says Wike."

We wish to affirm that it is true that Governor Wike was in Yola, the capital of Adamawa State on February 4, to inspect some projects being executed by Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri. And while inspecting the Greater Interchange and Underpass in Yola , some journalists requested for an interview which he graciously obliged them.

The questions asked ranged from the purpose of his visit; the prospects of the Peoples Democratic Party winning the 2023 general election and Nigeria's rating in the global corruption index recently published by Transparency International.

At no time during the interview session that lasted about five minutes did Governor Wike mention the names of Chief Tinubu and the APC's former national chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, or even alluded to them.

We, therefore consider the report by Mr Emmanuel Ande as preposterous, fabricated, malicious and intended to inflame relationship between Governor Wike and Chief Tinubu, whom the Rivers Chief Executive holds in high esteem.

“We wish to state without equivocation, that irrespective of political affiliation, Governor Wike has enormous respect for Chief Tinubu and will never say or do anything to malign the hard earned reputation of the elder statesman. The report by Mr Ande is mischievous and aimed to discredit The Guardian.

“It is our belief that the reporter is probably acting as hireling of some treacherous political actors, who often capitalise on the susceptibility of some journalists to manipulate them to publish misleading or factually incorrect information for political purposes. We dare the reporter to provide any evidence to prove the veracity of his fabricated report.”

This man speaks from both sides of his stinking mouth.

He don't want to step on the wrong toes because he nurses the ambition of becoming a vice president of naija.

Nonsense and ingredient

Who doesn't respect a drug lord. Is it easy to run a cartel and do it successfully.

Even Pablo Escobar had a fall in his life as drug baron but here is Tinubu ( Jagaban of Yoruba universe) Standing tall plus high....

Wike is right though, nothing in that guardian report suggest he made the remark that was misrepresented in the headline.

I knew Wike would never say something of such to jagaban. He respects Asiwaju alot and was one of the governors who sympathised with him when he lost his son

The journalist should publicize the video of the interview let's see who is lying, but I sense brown envelope journalism here.

Don't let this opportunity pass you by like Bitcoin did, start mining now before it is fully launched to become a VIP and earn big.

OK A study found that marrying an older man reduces a woman's lifespan, but marrying a younger man reduces it even more.
