In an interview with Channels TV, Wike questioned whether the nation had ever held elections. specifically the presidential election, for which citizens did not seek redress in court. “I was astonished to not see the party leaders yesterday when I watched television. What happened? But he has consistently shown up to court. I was shocked not to see any Labour Party officials in the courtroom. Both the vice presidential and presidential candidates must appear in court. The PDP has the same situation.
