Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike, on Thursday, accused some politicians of making false promises to Nigerians.
Wike, who was apparently referring to the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, said he pitied poor Nigerians who are at the receiving end.
He spoke on Thursday during the inauguration of the Ikoku flyover by the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in Rivers State.
Wike said, “What pains in this country is that some of us, all of us, I pity the poor Nigerians, I pity them. Some people come to tell me, support this person and I asked, do you know him?
“What I hear is people go to town meetings and they show all kinds of things they say. They say they will implement restructuring, they will make sure that every zone will have a member in the security council, that it is not good for one zone to control all the security chiefs.
“You see, but it is good for one zone to occupy all party positions. You see how Nigerians are. See how we are. I will implement that every zone will be represented, I will implement..that is the debate on TV because everybody wants Nigerians to say oh yes, but no Nigerian wants to say ‘let us start from the party’.”
