Who Doesn’t Know Who Did It For Tinubu?’ – Wike Mocks Tonye Cole Over Claim He Helped APC Win Rivers Presidential Poll
The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has openly admitted working for Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s victory in the February 25 presidential election in the state.
Wike’s admission came on Tuesday during the commissioning of a Government Secondary School in Kpor Community of Gokana Local Government Area, Rivers State.
The governor was refuting an alleged claim by the Rivers governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Tonye Cole, that he contributed to Tinubu’s victory in the state.
“How can people say that they rigged you. You said you made your presidential candidate to win. Your presidential candidate won, but you don’t get one senate (seat). What kind of wining is that?” Wike, who belongs to the Peoples Democratic Party, queried.
You know this attitude of playing to the gallery. Tell people the truth and the truth is simple. APC as a party in this state is no longer in existence and there’s no propaganda or campaign that will make Rivers to change.
“You said you made your presidential candidate to win…who doesn’t know who did it? Is it hidden? They supported PDP’s candidate (Atiku Abubakar) and they lost woefully, they didn’t get 25% of votes. We supported a southern president (Bola Tinubu) and we owe no apologies, for equity, fairness and justice.”
