Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has reacted to the visa
ban the United States slammed on some Nigerians involved in election rigging
and violence.
He told America and Britain to publish the names of citizens
indicted till date.
On Monday, the US government sanctioned Nigerians found to
have undermined the November 2019 governorship polls in Bayelsa and Kogi
States.
The ban was a follow-up to a similar one announced after the 2019 general elections.
The UK has also warned that names sponsors of violence in
Edo and Ondo States will be added to the existing blacklist.
In a statement on Thursday by Paulinus Nsirim, Commissioner
for Information, Wike commended the countries for their actions.
“They should go ahead and publish their names so that a lot
of things will change in our electoral process.
Election rigging is worse than armed robbery. So whatever
sanctions that can be imposed will be highly welcomed by the PDP, he said.
