PDP Primary: Wike knocks Tambuwal over withdrawal
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers States on Monday slammed his Sokoto counterpart, Aminu Tambuwal over his withdrawal from the presidential primary of the Peoples Democratic Party on Saturday.
Speaking on Monday, Wike said, “I’ve never seen how people can violate procedure, guideline. Somebody has spoken, it’s at that point he was speaking that he can say I’m withdrawing. You don’t call him back.”
“I just said, look, this our party must not be destroyed. I would have left where I was sitting down and say no, this convention can’t go on except you allow me to talk and I would have flatten that they say is a human being (Tambuwal), I would have flattened him.”
“When you see people, a sitting governor won election with 300 votes, which votes will he give? So it’s God’s will, let’s not bother ourselves so much.”
