Rivers Governor Can Come From Any Ethnic-Nationality- Wike

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has said that the governor of the state in 2023 general elections can come from any ethnic nationality.

The Governor made this known during a reception held in his honour by the leadership of Ogbako r-Ikwerre which is the apex socio-cultural group in Ikwerreland.

He said that no ethnic nationality in the state has the power to produce the governor on its own without the support of other ethnic nationalities.

“I accepted this honour because when I look back from where we are coming from, I am a proud Ikwerre man. I am a Rivers man, but I’m from the Ikwerre Ethnic Nationality.

“We will continue the legacy of Odili. Anyone with the interest of Rivers State will be supported. Wherever you are from, you must show that you are a Rivers man.

“We must work with all Ethnic Nationalities to move Rivers State forward.

“Rivers State is one. Nobody can divide Rivers State. No outsider can be Governor of Rivers State. Let us not allow anyone to divide us.

“If you must be a Governor of Rivers State, you must carry Everyone along. No Ethnic Group can do it alone. Once you say it is your turn, it will not work. When you say it is your turn, you have started failing.
