Posted by After meeting with President Bola Tinubu on Friday, Rivers State’s immediate past governor, Nyesom Wike, rejected plans to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Wike met Tinubu, as well as his Oyo State counterpart, Seyi Makinde, and former Delta State Governor, James Ibori.
However, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain stated that he only went to Tinubu to express his support four days after he was sworn in as Nigeria’s president.
When State House media inquired if switching to the APC was on the agenda of the meeting, Wike said, “No. There are no plans. Nothing like that is in the works.
“We are Nigerians, and we have come to support the president.”
“That is exactly what is required. That’s not such a huge thing.”
