Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike has stated that he will accept to run for another term only when he his sure that his supporters are willing to defend their votes in 2019.
Speaking in Port Harcourt, on Saturday, during the Civic Reception organised in his honour by the Apara Kingdom of Rivers State, Wike stated that going by the way the All Progressives Congress (APC) has failed in all areas, it might set out to write results in 2019, hence the need for the people to defend their votes.
“I will declare when you assure me you are ready to protect our votes,” he said.
“The way Nigeria is going today, the APC Federal Government is only prepared to write results but this time, the results will write them.
“Even if there is fuel, there is no money to buy fuel. Today, the exchange rate of the dollar to naira has degenerated and prices of foodstuffs have gone beyond the reach of Nigerians.
“They deceived Nigerians with all kinds of lies, but today they are compounding the problems of the people.
“I will continue to remain focused. Some people did not expect us to perform very excellently, but we have been able to put them to shame.”
In his remarks, the Monarch of Apara Kingdom, Eze C. A. Worlu-Wodo, announced that the people of Apara Kingdom have endorsed Governor Wike for a second term and urged him to present himself for a second term.
