Governor Nyesom Wike who is the pillar of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is not happy at the turn of events in his party, as a result, many other political party’s presidential candidates have been consulting him perhaps to get his support.
Meanwhile, there are reports that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Asiwaju Tinubu, has also met with Wike in London.
Similarly, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alh. Atiku Abubakar has also reportedly jetted to the UK to lobby Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.
