Wike vows to complete Tenure
Embattled governor of Rivers state, Chief Nyesom Wike has vowed to
complete his four year tenure as governor .He also took a shot at his
predecessor Rotimi Amaechi for celebrating over his ministerial
nomination,a position he,Wike has held in the past .The governor, who
was speaking to a crowd that gathered for a
thanksgiving service at the Obi Wali International Conference Centre in
Port Harcourt on Sunday, said
“We will win and I will complete my four years tenure as the governor
of Rivers State. The thanksgiving service today is very significant
because if what enemies planned had work, I wouldn’t have been governor
today.
“The nullification of my election by tribunal sitting in Abuja shows
that justice is ours. I am surprised that some people are celebrating
over the judgement, when they described the judgement against their
candidates at the National Assembly as judicial 419.
“It is now that they have confidence in judiciary. In spite of the
judgement, we still have hope in the judiciary. I want to beg you, don’t
be provoked; I know what happened at the weekend is provoking. But, I
know what their plans are; that was why I am begging you to be calm,
“I was a minister in this country
and I was given the highest responsibility. And today, some people are
struggling to be a minister; and they are celebrating to be a minister
as if nobody has been a minister in this state.”
