The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has said the people of the state will not vote for a presidential candidate that will either jail or kill him when elected into office.
Wike stated this while speaking at a campaign rally at Obio-Akpor LGA on Saturday.
He also commended All Progressives Congress, APC, Governors for their stance on power shift to the south.
Wike said: “We will not support those who say when they come to power, they will kill me.
“We will not support those who say when they come to power, they will jail me.
“Will you allow them to kill me? Will you vote for those who do not want us to exist? Are you sure?”
Wike, however, did not categorically state the candidate he was referring to.
He and his G5 allies — including Seyi Makinde of Oyo, Samuel Ortom of Benue, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu — have excluded themselves from the party’s presidential campaign over calls for Iyorchia Ayu to step down as the party’s national chairperson.
