A Katsina based activist, Dr. Shehu Mahdi, has taken a swipe at the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike over his numerous controversies, saying that the actions of the Rivers State chief executive may be under constant influence of cannabis and dry gin.
Wike on Friday sealed the Campaign Office of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar in the state.
The Rivers State Governor who lost the PDP presidential primary to Atiku Abubakar has been up in arms against the candidature of Atiku insisting that the National Chairman of the Party, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu must vacate his position for peace to reign.
Wike’s moves is however seen as a ploy to destabilize the PDP ahead of the 2023 General Elections which the leadership of the structures of the Party are not ready to toy with thus, rejected his request.
Following the development, Wike and four other governors on the platform of the PDP have refused to identified with the presidential campaign of the party.
Since his failure to clinch the presidential ticket of the PDP, Governor Wike has taken advantage of every opportunity to criticize, insulted and lampooned Atiku, the party National Chairman and supporters of Atiku in Rivers State.
Wike recently declared while commissioning the tenth flyover by his administration in the Obio-Akpor Local Government Area that he will reveal the presidential candidate of his choice in January to enable Rivers people know who to support and elect.
In his reaction, Dr. Shehu Mahdi through his verified Twitter handle, said Wike’s antics has already been known.
Mahdi pointedly said; “Rivers Governor is a dancer and his body language has made people to have understood in his various languages.
“Some of the languages used by Governor Nyesom Wike were influenced by cannabis and dry gin. Wike the dancer promised to speak to Nigerians in their own language starting on January 1.
“Numerous people, some of whom are influenced by cannabis, dry gin, or a hatred for venom, have subsequently understood his many languages, whether they knew who he was or not. Another is a language of despair,” he stressed.
