A former Chief Whip of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Evans Bipi, says former Rivers state governor Nyesom Wike manipulated the outcome of the 2023 general election in Rivers state.
Bipi said this in Port Harcourt, while speaking at a solidarity rally for the state governor organized by women groups across the 23 local government areas.
He emphatically said Labour Party, “won all their elections” in the state.
A trending video clip from the event captured the former Chief Whip reacting to a recent outburst by Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.
Wike, who has been at loggerheads with his successor, Governor Siminalayi Fubara, recently claimed that come 2027 the people of Rivers state will know who owns the land apparently assuring his supporters that governor Fubara would be removed from office in the next governorship election.
Reacting, Bipi, who represented Fubara at the rally, said with the level of mobilization by the women, Fubara would win convincingly in any election.
He further alleged that Wike and his allies did not win any seat in the 2023 elections.
