Nyesom Wike Was At The Epicenter Of The Jinx-Breaking Result Of Tinubu In Rivers State – Rivers APC

Some Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State have stated that it would be wrong to reward Senator Magnus Abe with a ministerial appointment under the President Bola Tinubu administration.

It is expected that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will send list of ministerial nominees to the upper chamber of the national assembly in the next few weeks.

According to The Nigerian Tribune paper, The stakeholders in a statement on Sunday said “former Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike, was at the epicenter of the jinx-breaking result of Tinubu in Rivers State, and should be allowed to benefit from the fruits of his labor”

Recall that Nyesom Wike, a former Governor of Rivers State was against the presidential ambition of the standard flag bearer of his party, Peoples Democratic Party in the last general elections.

Reacting further, Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in a statement which was signed by sir Victor Akpati, the Southeast Coordinator of the group said; “It is already a known fact that the Amaechi-led faction of the APC Rivers remained implacable, adamant, and firmly resolved not to support Tinubu, even after Tinubu emerged from a free, fair, and credible Presidential Primary Election. Tinubu personally visited with colleague aspirants, including Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, to solicit support for the Party.”

He added; “It is equally annoying to see Magnus Abe and his supporters claiming to have supported Tinubu’s emergence when the reverse is clearly the case. We feel sad when we see them posting falsehoods in old pictures and video footage with the clear intention to deceive Nigerians of their involvement.”
