Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has downplayed the possibility of leaving the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the aftermath of the party’s presidential primaries.
Wike stated that he would soon inform Nigerians of the truth about the PDP’s situation.
He spoke to journalists on Friday at the Port Harcourt International Airport in Rivers State’s capital, shortly after returning from a foreign trip.
“I’ve decided to remain silent because I adore the PDP.”
“I’ve moved on to the conclusion of my social contract with the people of Rivers.” However, it is time to tell Nigerians the truth.
“I am not a slave and will not be a slave.” “I am a freeborn citizen of this country,” he declared.

Wike is upset with the PDP’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, for selecting Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate.
Atiku was accused of ignoring the recommendations of a committee he formed to select his running mate.
The committee, led by Governor Samuel Ortom, chose Wike, who finished second in the presidential primaries, to be Atiku’s running mate.
