I could have destroyed PDP but I allowed peace to reign – Wike
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare on Whatsapp

Governor Nyesom Wike has broken his silence on the last minute political power play amongst some gladiators in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, that denied him the presidential ticket of the party at its special national convention which began on Saturday, May 28 and concluded at the earlier hours of Sunday, May 29, 2022.

Speaking on Monday after his arrival in Port Harcourt, the River State capital, Wike said, “If I wanted to scuttle the convention, I would have done that and I told them. There are people you think they are human beings but they are not human beings.

“I have never seen how people can violate procedures and guidelines. Somebody had spoken, it is only at that point he was speaking that he can say I have withdrawn. You don’t call him back.

“I just decided that this our party must not be destroyed. I would have left where I was sitting down and say this convention cannot go ahead except you allow me to talk. I would have flattened him”.

“As far as I am concerned, there is nothing to worry about. I contested that election based on the agreement with all the Southern Governors and the leaders of the South that the presidency should go to the South.

“We have done our own part. We never betrayed anybody because it is not in our blood to betray. But it is a shame to those people, some governors from the South who are the people they used to sabotage our victory. But however, we have shown them that we are not like them.”
