Governor Wike denies suing Atiku, Peoples Democratic Party
The controversial Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike has denied reports that he sued the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, adding that he did not approach the court neither did he ask anyone to file a suit on his behalf.
Penpushing reports that, Wike made the clarification on Friday during the official commissioning of some projects in Port Harcourt, the state capital, adding that the said reports of the suit emanated from Atiku’s people.
“I want to state categorically that if I wanted to go to court, I will go to court. I have kept quiet and busy delivering dividends of democracy. If I wanted to, I would have gone to court within two weeks after primary. Because that is pre-election matter. It is the candidate’s group doing all these. And they’re not doing him any favour. But I wish them good luck.”
Penpushing further reports that, Wike was reacting to reports that he sued Atiku, and the party, as well as the Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, who was a presidential aspirant at the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) primary.
The governor while recalling that he called Atiku and said he (Atiku) will win or lose the 2023 election because of the people around him, however, warned the people behind the suit to let him be and allow peace to reign, even as he urged Atiku to caution his supporters
“Tell those supporting you to go and commission projects to win their states…I have no reason to go to court. Those of you who put my name, shame will be on you. Leave Wike alone’, the known frankly speaking governor emphasised
