2023: What Ayu did to me – Wike

Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers State, stated on Friday that Sen. Iyorchia Ayu, the PDP’s national chairman, had done nothing to prevent him from becoming the party’s nominee for president.

Wike made this statement during a live media interview with a few Port Harcourt television stations.

“There’s nothing Ayu did not do for me not to emerge as the PDP candidate,” Wike said.

“Ayu did everything to manipulate the system to ensure that all the numbers did not add up.”

Recall that the PDP’s presidential primary elections were place in May of this year.

Alhaji Abubakar Atiku won the PDP’s nomination to run for president in the general election of 2023.

With 371 votes, Atiku defeated Wike; the governor received 237 votes for second place.
