EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike has clarified that his team is not against reconciliation with the Presidential flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar.
Wike maintained that their position that elective offices must be shared equally between the north and the south in the PDP ahead of the 2023 general elections remained sacrosanct.
Wike said this at the inauguration of the Rumuepirikom Flyover in Rivers. The project inauguration was performed by Adams Oshiomhole, the former governor of Edo State, on Wednesday.
“I’m sure, those of them in my party, before, they cannot say anything without mentioning Wike.
But now, because I said let the right thing be done, let agreement be agreement. Because I have said that, I have now become an enemy.
These were people who were praising me morning, night, any day.
“But because we said, look, we had an agreement, do this, do that, and some people believe that they will not and we said it must be done.
“We stand for equity, fairness and justice.
“That is what the G-5 Governors will continue to preach.
“We have said we are not against reconciliation, but reconciliation must be based on equity, fairness and justice,” Wike said.
