The former Governor of Rivers State and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has, during a media parley from 1:18:30, maintained that he never told President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that he would dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for the All Progressive Congress (APC); as he noted that if he wanted to join the ruling party, he would have joined.
Nyesom Wike had said, “I am not like them that come out in the day time and say different thing, in the night, you say different thing – no! Nigerians know me, I say something I will do, and I will do; what I will not do, I will not d. I came out and said, I was not going to support this, and I have no regret about it; and I have said severally. Two: the President knows, I never spoke with President that look, I will go to APC; I never told anybody that – and nobody should think that I am afraid if I want to join APC, I will not join APC. Who is that person that I will be afraid of? Who is that person in PDP?”
