JUST IN: 2023 presidency: I know the candidates that can rescue Nigeria – Wike

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, on Monday stated that he knows those who mean well for Nigeria among those vying for the presidency.
Wike, who stated this during a project flag-off ceremony in Eneka, Rivers State, said: “Some other people are busy, putting selves together on how they will take over leadership in Nigeria; to loot the remaining ones this other people have already kept. I’m privileged to know and at the appropriate time I’ll tell you who these people are.”
Apparently referring to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar’s slogan of aiming to ‘rescue Nigeria’, Wike added: “Forget about all these people running around saying they want to rescue or save you Nigeria. Just watch to see what is going to happen next.
“All of us should be calm concerning what is happening in PDP. In fact, nothing has happened yet. But by the grace of God, something will happen.”
Feeling unfazed by perceived negative media campaigns against his administration, Wike said: “Look at us concentrating in giving our people good governance. What is good governance? Good governance is making the people to be happy.
“Good governance is providing infrastructure for the people. Good governance is not about party. Providing good governance is about leadership. We are here every day flagging off projects, commissioning projects even though our tenure is coming to an end.
“Now that I have come to Eneka to provide this basic infrastructure, I can come back to Eneka and ask you to follow me, let us go there or let us stay here. Do they have what it takes to come and talk to you? Can they come and talk to you?
“It is somebody that hears from you that you can also hear from. This one you’ve not provided anything for my people, you’ve not asked them what they want, then you want to tell them where to vote.
“So, it is us that will come and meet you and say, see where you’ll vote. And I know based on our relationship, since we have not deceived you, we have not told you lies, you will follow us at the appropriate time.”
