2023: PDP Chances Stronger If Bauchi Gov Emerges Presidential Candidate – Wike

  • Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has said that the Peoples Democratic Party’s chance will get stronger if Bala emerges Presidential candidate

EKOHOTBLOG Reports that Wike said PDP stands a chance of winning the 2023 presidential election if his counterpart in Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, emerged the candidate of the party.

Wike complained that Nigeria was in a serious crisis as a result of insecurity, stating that it was time for the Peoples Democratic Party to return to power and save the country.

The governor, disclosed this while answering questions from journalists during a visit to Bauchi State on Saturday, saying God would not forgive the PDP, if it failed to heed the yearnings of Nigerians to return to power.

In his words, “One of my resolutions for the year 2022 is to make sure that Nigeria is better than what it was last year. It is also to make sure that the PDP is united because if the PDP makes the mistake of not listening to Nigerians, it will be very difficult for God to forgive the PDP.

“This is an opportunity to save Nigeria. We Christians know that when the Israelites were in problems, God had to bring Moses to lead them. Nigeria is in serious problems now and it is the PDP that will lead Nigeria out of these problems. So, we must take that responsibility. I’ll prefer that if God makes it that the ticket falls on him (Bala Mohammed), it means our chances are very, very bright.

“This insecurity, this is not the kind of Nigeria we want, it is not the Nigeria where every day you wake up in the morning, the newspaper says, ‘40 people have been killed…’ These deaths are caused by the inability of the so-called government to protect us.”

Wike described Mohammed as being more than qualified to become the next President of Nigeria. He stated that the antecedents and achievements of the Bauchi State governor in over two years in office showed that he could rule the country effectively.
