Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has reiterated that discussions with his political friends regarding the presidential candidate to back in the February 25 election will be finished soon.
Wike stated this at the Tuesday’s Local Government Campaign Flag-off Rally of the Rivers State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for Ikwerre Local Government Area, held at St. Martin’s Anglican Church, in Omagwa Town.
The governor remarked that one of the best things about the upcoming election is that it will completely rule out any kind of electoral meddling or security personnel intimidation.
Wike encouraged the crowd during the campaign to show up to the polls.
He said, “This time, no army will do anything. No Fakorode will do any thing. No police will do anything.
“Now, it is one man, one vote. All the votes must be in one basket from the governorship to the House of Assembly. The other one we are concluding. When we conclude, you will be told.
“Nobody should intimidate you. Nobody should tell you any story. We are free-born in this country. We are not second-class citizens. Nobody can tell us anything. I dare them. Let anybody do any funny thing, We’ll tell them we are from Rivers State.
“As we finish from here now, you’ll go home and start working before the appropriate time when we will ring the bell. When you hear the bell ringing, know that the decision has been taken.”
