FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has revealed that the 27 State Assembly lawmakers who moved from the People’s Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress did not inform him of their decision.
Wike made this known while speaking to his supporters at his residence in Port Harcourt on Sunday.
According to him, the defected lawmakers explained that they refused to tell him because they knew he would have stopped them from moving.
“These young men, members of the Rivers State House of Assembly didn’t tell me before they defected to the APC. They said if they had told me, I will have said no so they had to do the needful,” he said.
On being betrayed by some persons he helped, the governor said, “anyone who does not want to be betrayed should not join politics as politics and betrayal go together.
“President Tinubu told me when we were meeting that somebody told him not to trust me, he said NO. Politics and betrayal are the same mother and father.
“If you don’t want to be betrayed, don’t enter politics. So, don’t be bothered that somebody betrayed you because politics and betrayal go together.
Prepare yourself that it will happen.
“I am fully prepared. That’s what President Tinubu taught me, if you don’t want to be betrayed, don’t enter politics.
