Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has declared support
for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Recall that the governor, on Saturday, lost the party’s
presidential ticket to the former Vice President, Atiku.
There have been speculations that Governor Wike may jettison
the party’s interest by refusing to support the winner of the primary election.
But shortly after Atiku paid him a courtesy visit in his
Abuja residence on Monday, Wike said he had vowed to support anyone who emerged
as flag bearer of the party.
In a tweet on his official Twitter handle, Wike said he
would be in full support of Atiku’s bid to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari
in 2023.
He wrote, “I made a vow to the Official Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) Nigeria that i will support whoever emerges from the
#PDPPresidentialPrimaries and I am not going to go back on my word.
“We cannot abandon the PDP, we will be fully supporting
Atiku Abubakar”.
