Gov. Nyesom Wike of Rivers, on Friday, said that his coming to Abuja reminded him of his defeat during the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s presidential primary held on May 28 at Eagle Square.

Wike made this known at a book launch in Abuja.

The book, titled: “Flowing Justice: Selected Leading Judgments of the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court,” was authored by retired Justice Abdu Aboki and unveiled by the governor.

“I want to once again congratulate My Lord, Hon Justice Abdu Aboki JSC for giving me this opportunity to be here and to be the chief launcher,” he said.

“But why I said My Lord did not do well is because if he had held this in Lagos or Kano, I would have been happy,” he said

Wike said that when he arrived in Abuja and sighted the Eagle Square, he recalled the presidential poll experience.

“When I landed and then passed through the venue (Eagle Square), I said I think My Lord intentionally wanted me to remember 28 and 29 of May of what happened.

“Well, but life continues,” he said jokingly.

According to him, today is my first time of coming to Abuja after losing election.

He said unlike Governor Bello who had visited Abuja for a number of time even after losing the All Progressives (APC) presidential primary, he had remained in his state.
