Former Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike has described newly elected Senate President, Godswill Akpabio as qualified and experienced.
Wike, who made this known in a chat with journalists Today said he supported Akpabio because the latter suported him when he was running to be Governor.
According to him, Akpabio is the right man for the job, as he believes he would not lead a “rubber stamp” assembly.
He also said by the result, President Bola Tinubu has equally proven that he will not allow the country to be polarised.
“I don’t believe that Akpabio will be rubber stamped. I also supported him because he equally supported me when I was running for governorship,” he said.
“The election of Godswill Obot Akpabio from the South-South as the President of the Senate is a clear testimony that Nigerians are interested in the unity of the country,” he added.
