His words:

“I never campaigned against Obi. I never did that. Is not that he (Obi) will do me anything, wetin he go do me? He can’t do me anything. But I felt is of no need since we (G5 Governors) are talking of southern presidency.

“We (Integrity Group) agreed that we will make sure that power comes to the south and that in any State where you have control, if Labour Party comes first, APC must come second and vice-versa. And we did it!”

He also commended the APC governors for standing firm to support the southern presidency adding that he won’t be running for president again.

Meanwhile, calabargistblog.com.ng had previously reported that Wike explained why Peter Obi dumped the PDP and joined the LP.

It was reported that Governor Wike spoke on Thursday, March 9, when he hosted the National Executive Committee of Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo Worldwide on a courtesy visit at the Government House in Port Harcourt.

During the visit, Wike said the words of Sule Lamido led to Obi’s decision to leave the opposition party for the Labour Party.
