Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has accused the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar of holding talks with APC governors in Dubai.
There have been reports that the G5 PDP Governors led by Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state have been meeting with APC flagbearer, Tinubu in London on the possibility of their teaming up to work for his victory in the forthcoming presidential elections.
Speaking at the flag-off of the construction of Eneka-Igbo Etche road in River State, Wike said he has the right to meet with anybody in any part of the world.
Reacting to the report, the governor urged the people of the state to avoid speculations on his adopted presidential candidate.
He said: “Really, I don’t understand the problem with some people. “Just to unwind is a problem to them. Some people say ‘they (G5 governors) have moved on; don’t bother about them. Why is he bothered about where we go to or where we don’t go to? We go to a club, you’re worried. We go and sleep, you’re worried. Yet, you tell Nigerians you don’t bother.
“There say there is trouble. There is no trouble; what we have is the introduction to trouble that will come. They said we had a meeting with so and so. What is your problem?
“Assuming there was a meeting, has Atiku not been holding meetings with governors of APC? Ask him. As he is in Dubai, don’t we know what is going on? So, why do you bother about us? G5 that you said you can win without us, leave us alone.
“I am not someone who will go and see somebody and hide. Hide for who? Who is that person that will threaten me?”
