Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has reacted to the statement by the former Governor of Lagos State, Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Tinubu had claimed that Governor Godwin Obaseki’s employment of “strong arm tactics of dictators” is the cause of political instability in Edo State.
Reacting to Tinubu’s statement, Wike in a statement on Saturday said he was shocked.
“Tinubu is one man that I have great respect for so when I read the papers, I was taken aback. It is unfortunate that members that were not inaugurated can turn around to illegally impeach people,” he said, while reacting to the impeachment of the Speaker and deputy Speaker of the Edo Assembly.
Wike also stated that “The certificate claims about Governor Obaseki by the former APC National Chairman is a non-issue because he(Obaseki), is the best candidate for Edo State.”
