You Will Be In Trouble - Wike Threatens Rivers Politicians Ahead Of 2023 Election

The hotel where Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, is lodging in Benin, Edo State capital is under siege by over 300 policemen.

Naija News reports that People Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman, Rivers chapter, Akawor Desmond, made the allegation on Friday.

He said the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, would be held responsible should anything happen to the governor.

“The attention of the entire people of Rivers State has been drawn to the siege laid to the hotel where the Governor of Rivers State Nyesom Wike is lodging while on official assignment in Benin, Edo State,” Desmond said.

Recall that Governor Wike was appointed Chairman of the PDP National Campaign Council for the Edo governorship election. This is the same position Governor Ganduje of Kano State occupies for his party, the APC.

“Governor Ganduje and Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State are all in Benin, Edo State carrying out their assignment for the APC without any molestation or intimidation.

“And in a breach of the pledge they made, security agencies have decided to harass and intimidate Governor Wike who has not done any wrong.

“May I on behalf of the entire Rivers people warn that we shall hold the IGP responsible for anything that happens to our governor.”
