Don’t Support Atiku – He Will Betray You Again – VON DG Tells Wike

The Director-General of the Voice of Nigeria (VON),Osita Okechukwu, has cautioned the Governor of Rivers State South-South Nigeria, Nyesom Wike against losing out in the current political permutations in the country.

Gatekeepers News had earlier reported that Wike met with the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Paris, France.

Wike also had meetings with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Peter Obi, flagbearer of the Labour Party (LP), and Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Okechukwu while commenting on the meetings said Wike is currently enjoying “the moment” but should not be carried away by the attention he is getting from political bigwigs.

Okechukwu added that Wike should either align himself with Tinubu or Obi.

He said, “Is it not Nollywood characteristic that he (Wike) met with the leading big three presidential candidates – Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of APC, Peter Obi of Labour Party and lastly Atiku Abubakar of PDP?.

“My candid advice is that he should not make the mistake of rewarding Atiku Abubukar, who betrayed the south and by extension Wike, who could have won the PDP presidential primary election.

“The grave danger of Wike making the gross mistake of going back to Atiku, who is now the new sheriff in charge of PDP, take my bet, is that he will definitely suffer from dagger’s syndrome.

“For Asiwaju, he will harvest from our (APC) spread. For Obi, his constituents and allies may be more comfortable.

“The truism is that patriots of both north and south are not so happy with the betrayal of the rotation convention by Atiku, this made a lot to doubt his proclamation of being a unifier.

“He is not a unifier, for a unifier cannot breach the constitution of his political party and the federal character principle enunciated in 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
