Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has again, travelled to
Europe, though his exact destination is yet unknown.
Our correspondent, however, learnt that the governor may
have headed to the United Kingdom, London to be precise.
Of late, London has become the Governor’s destination of
choice outside the shores of Nigeria.
His other choice, more often than not is Spain, where the state government has a partnership with top Champion’s League winner, the Real Madrid Football Club.
The state government had established a Real Madrid Academy
in Port Harcourt which is currently recruiting intakes.
Recall that Wike had addressed a televised media chat
earlier on Friday in Government House, Port Harcourt, where he opened what can
be termed a can of worms.
It was gathered that the Governor of the crude oil and
gas-rich state jetted out in a chattered flight from the Port Harcourt
International Airport at about midnight on Friday.
A top government official who pleaded anonymity confirmed
the governor’s departure to our correspondent on Saturday morning.
“Yes, he (Wike) travelled last night. But I don’t know his
exact destination,” he said.
The governor, during the fever-pitched media chat on Friday
had made several revelations.
One of such was that the presidential standard bearer of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, had offered him a Senatorial ticket during their meeting in London last month.
