Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, has taunted the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, for leading the party’s leaders on a protest march to the national headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over the outcome of the February 25 presidential election.
Wike spoke on Monday at the inauguration of the Chokocho-Igbodo Road in Etche local government area of the State.
The governor said he warned the leadership of the PDP over its insistence that Northerners hold onto the presidential ticket and national chairmanship seat of the party at the same time.
He said: “While other people are demonstrating, I am inaugurating projects. I have not gone to do demonstration; my own is to inaugurate projects and make my people happy.”
Wike commended Nigerians for voting a Southern President in the just-concluded Presidential and National Assembly elections.
