Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has clarified the content of a video circulating on social media, purporting that he intends to defect from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
Wike, in a statement by his media aide, Kelvin Ebiri on Wednesday said the viral video was an excerpt from the interview he granted a television station following the defection of Ebonyi State governor, Dave Umahi from the PDP to the APC.
He said the video ‘has been deliberately manipulated by ‘some desperate and unscrupulous persons with obnoxious agenda.’
The Governor was emphatic he will never abandon the PDP, the party that has offered him the platform to excel in his political career.
The State by Ebiri partly reads: “During the interview, Governor Wike while reacting to reason given by Ebonyi State governor for his defection, dismissed it as untenable.
“The excerpt of the interview in circulation has been deliberately manipulated by some desperate and unscrupulous persons with obnoxious agenda.
“The intent of the video being circulated is to mislead the unsuspecting public, particularly members of the PDP.
We, hereby urge the public to disregard the manipulated video.
“We urge the public to ignore the distorted video. Those behind it are desperately wicked and intend to mislead the public. Governor Wike remains a faithful, committed member of the PDP and will never leave it for cancerous APC.” CONTINUE READING….
