What Gov. Wike Did To President Buhari That Surprised Nigerians As President’s Party Vows To Deal With An APC Governor For Doing This

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike alongside some of his party members welcomed President Muhammadu Buhari to Rivers State in a warm atmosphere.

According to Daily Trust, Governor Wike on Tuesday, received the All Progressive Congress, (APC) Presidential Candidate, President Buhari at the Nigeria Air Base airstrip in Port Harcourt. Governor Wike, who is a Peoples Democratic Party chieftain, and some members of the State Executive Council welcomed the President at about 10.17 am.

The Rivers State Governor presented a bouquet of flowers to the President. The President boarded a Nigerian Air Force helicopter and left to Bayelsa State for Campaigns and he is being expected back at Port Harcourt to attend another Presidential campaign at Adoki Amasiemeka Stadium.

In another development, the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, promised to take punitive measures against sponsors of Ogun presidential rally violence after the elections.

The APC National Publicity Secretary, Malam Lanre Issa-Onilu said, in a statement today, that the party regretted Monday’s alleged premeditated attacks purportedly sponsored by Governor Ibikunle Amosun on President Muhammadu Buhari and other senior party leaders at the venue of the presidential campaign rally in Ogun State.

Issa-Onilu, who said the party would review what he called ‘gross misconduct’, added that party supremacy and discipline were not matters of choice but binding principles which must be adhered to by all party members.

The APC spokesman, who urged party supporters and members not to be disturbed by Monday’s condemnable incident, implored all to continue trooping out enmasse for the remaining campaigns and vote massively for only APC candidates in the forthcoming general elections.

“This is one act of indiscipline too many. The APC will not condone acts of indiscipline, indiscretion and anti-party activities from any party member no matter how highly placed.

“The party will review this gross misconduct of deliberately positioning thugs to attack and embarrass the President and the party’s leadership. The party will take a decision on this matter immediately after the elections,” the statement read in part.
