Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has given kudos to Nigerians for ing the power shift to the Southern region.

Wike who spoke on Friday in Ibadan, Oyo State capital said with the emergence of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the APC as the President-elect, the issue of the rotational presidency has been settled for good.

The Governor also lauded the Governor of the state, Seyi Makinde for being part of those that make the historic movement achievable.

Wike had ed his fellow G5 colleague to commission the Oyo State 5,000,000-litre Aviation Fuel Dispensing Depot at the Ibadan Airport in the Alakia area of the state.

According to him, “I am happy he (Makinde) is one of those that made history by making sure that power shift to the south.

“I have told people that those who fight for change, who fight for revolution may not be directed beneficiaries of that fight but today, history has it that all of us now are aware that when power finishes from the south, it will go to the north; when it finishes from the north, it will come to the south.

“So, it does not need to be written in the constitution at all before it is implemented. And I thank Nigerians for standing firm to see that this issue materializes.”

Wike, who is a Governor under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is the leader of the five aggrieved Governors of the party popularly known as the G5 or Integrity Group.

The group had refused to work for the party’s flagbearer, Atiku Abubakar because it insisted that the PDP national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu resigns for a candidate of southern extraction.

However, Ayu’s refusal to resign pushed the group to work against the party’s presidential candidate.

Meanwhile, speculations are that Wike and Makinde were instrumental to the victory of Tinubu both in Rivers and Oyo States.

Nyesome wike's political glory is gone . Mark this anywhere.
He has soiled his hands in evil, forgery and used his hands to destroy his glory.
The Labour party was the link to promote wike in the new Nigeria but he has lost It.

Wike is now an empty drum. He is finished. Just waiting to be disgraced nationally and internationally.

I really hope Makinde retains the seat

Huh

He should be ashamed all Nigerians know he is a crook

There was an old thread brought forward to trending list here on Nairaland today dated 2012 when Peter Obi was the governor of Anambra state.
Please you can search for it and see for yourself what Obidense wanted to impose on us just because they want an Igbo person to rule by force.
They brought out damning evidences to prove that Peter Obi was a monumental failure during his tenure, now help me ask them what changed that made Obi a saint overnight
2019 the Igbos were 95% atikulated just because of Obi as the vice, they never said anything wrong to the person of Atiku then but fast forward to 2023 they now see that Atiku is a thief and not worthy of becoming a president
I pity youths from other tribes forming woke and let Obidense used their brain

I wonder o. I haven't seen this before. Winners that are shouting upandan. We won o! We won o!

It's almost as if they need to remind themselves 🤔

If only you knew what awaits your ignominy role you played in the desecration of the people's mandate, you will be sad even in your grave. I'll be happy to see you are alive to witness the new Nigeria that shall arise from the grave you and you ilks have pushed it into. You'll live to regret for killing the people's live mandate. Wicked and evil Wike
