Senator Ned Nwoko has declared that former Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike did not influenced the emergence of minority leaders of the 10th National Assembly.
He said: “The rumour that Wike influenced the emergence of minority leaders of the 10th National Assembly is baseless. Wike cannot represent seven political parties that made up the minority.”
“The minority parties in the 10th assembly consist of seven political parties.”
“This becomes the requirement for those parties to nominate who will be the minority leader, and the question is this, is wike a member of seven political parties?”
“Over two weeks now, some people were going about to collect signatures of Senators for this exercise and have met the requirements, so there is nothing anybody can do.”
“PDP as a party knows when the 10th Assembly was inaugurated, and if they want to participate in the nomination of the leadership, how many times have they called for meeting?”
“So nobody should cry over spilled milk”.
