Former governor of Rivers State and a MinMinister-designateyesom Wike, visited the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdul. Rahi Umar Gnaduje, in Abuja, on Tuesday.
Wike, who worked against the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in the 2023 election, has repeatedly denied plotting to join the ruling party.
“I am not a member of APC and will not be. But, they have made me recrecognizeat they are the heroes of this country. APC governors came out to say for the unity of this country, the presidency should go to the south,” he once said while dismissing the rumor.
But during a thanksgiving service organ organized honourhonorly after he handed over power in Rivers, Governor Simi Fubara asked Wike not to abandon him if he ends up in the ruling party.
“While we are seeing ssignstsignsit’s like you want to go over to the other side with everybody wishing that, please don’t be too far from me because I know that the sharks, the tigers are looking for what to hurt. So, being around would continue to guide and put my head straight for the update,” Fubara had said.
