Nyesom Wike has said he won’t seek any of the presidential aspirants under Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to vie as a running mate.
Wike said he’s first and foremost a first term governor and will not seek to be anyone’s running mate even in his dreams.
Wike said this during an interview with reporters at government house, Port Harcourt on Thursday, September 20, 2018.
“There are aspirants who have promised me the position of the vice-president, but I said I will not seek the position; not even in the dream will I seek that position at this point,” he said.
Continuing, Wike said, “I am a first-term governor and the national chairman of PDP is from my state and the south-south… these are mere allegations. People can carry rumours, but everything I will do, will be in the interest of Rivers state.
“Nobody can use Rivers state as a tool; they did that in the past, but not anymore.”
