Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike is very angry and has accused Southern governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of betraying him as regards the power shift agreement.
Wike said: “Shame to those who will sell out their own. I have never seen a thing like that. No wonder we cannot move on with development.”
“Look, a region ganged up. Your own region cannot gang up, you become a tool to be used against the interests of your people and you think you have won. No, you have lost.”
“I did not clinch the PDP presidential ticket but my performance has raised the political profile of Rivers State and other minority groups in Nigeria.”
“In the political history of this country, you can count on us. We are not push-overs.”
