The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has maintained his stand on the 2023 presidential election, insisting that it is a fight to finish.
The Governor who spoke during a campaign rally in his state on Monday told the people of Rivers State that they should remain calm and follow his guidance, stressing that they know he always wins.
Wike spoke amidst the crisis that has engulfed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with some aggrieved Governors popularly known as the G5 insisting they won’t work for the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar except Iyorchia Ayu resigns from his position as the national chairman of the party and is replaced by a southerner.
With a few days to the February 25 presidential elections in Nigeria, Wike has again declared that Rivers State will emerge victorious in the face-off.
He said anyone that doesn’t have the interest of the state at heart would not get the votes of the people.
Speaking on how the people of Rivers should vote, Wike assured that the PDP would win the governorship, National, and House of Assembly elections but for the presidency, the people should await further instructions.
He gave the update at the Local Government Campaign inauguration of the Rivers State PDP that held at Felix Obuah Pavilion, Omoku Town in Ogba-Egbema-Ndoni Local Government area (ONELGA).
The Governor said: “That is how you know those who hate Rivers State , that is how you know those who love us. If you hate Rivers State, we will not give you our vote. We will only give our vote to those who love Rivers state.
You have to listen to your leaders through the DG (director general) of the campaign. They will come back to you, sit you down and tell you where we are heading to.
It is a fight to finish. Do not be afraid. We are going to win at the end of the day. You know that we have always won. We will continue to win.
We have never failed in anything we have told you. Success has always been with us. God has been with us. This time is not going to be different. God will continue to lead us.”
