Governor Nyesom Wike has alleged that the All Progressives Congress (APC) led Federal Government had a plan to remove him from office.
The Governor also said that God delivered him from all the evil plans of the ruling party.
Wike said the government planned to rig March 19, and December 10, 2016 legislative rerun elections so they could impeach him.
He said this during a thanksgiving service organised to celebrate the second year anniversary of his administration in Port-Harcourt, Rivers state.
According to Daily Post, Wike said “They wanted to use the rerun elections to get enough state lawmakers to impeach me. But by God’s grace, we won. We don’t have any power compared to the Federal Government. But God’s power is greater and that is why we have always won.
“Everything was done to make sure that I was not sworn in. They went to Anambra court, they went Imo court, they went to Kano court and they went to Abuja court just to make sure that I was not sworn in.
“Just to get an order to stop me from being inaugurated as the governor of the state and God said no, I will be governor.
“Man said we will not have money to pay salaries, but God said we will have money to pay salaries. Man said we will not have money to do projects, but today, God gave us the money to do projects.”
Governor Nyesom Wike also said that the state government is determined to strengthen the judicial system in promotion of good governance.
