Former Rivers Federal lawmaker, representing Etche-Omuma Constituency, Chief Ogbonna Nwuke, has reacted to the emergence of Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa as the running mate to Atiku Abubakar.
The former Rivers APC spokesperson in a statement shortly after Atiku announced Okowa, said Atiku rejected Rivers State, and not Governor, Nyesom Wike.
According to him, Wike would speak at the appropriate time, adding that whatever decision he makes will be okay by them.
“I believe that our leader will speak at the appropriate time. We are members and whatever decision he makes will be okay by us because he is the one wearing the shoe now, he said.
“I think it is not Governor Wike that Atiku rejected; it is Rivers State he rejected,” the former Rivers State Commissioner of Information and Communications added.
