Wike, Akpabio throw jabs
It was a war of words at the inauguration of a completed project in Port Harcourt, Rivers on Tuesday, September 28. The heated exchange was between Governor Wike and the minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio.
Akpabio noted that he will not join others to lobby Governor Wike into the APC, adding that the ruling party has enough problems to deal with at the moment.
In response, Wike compared both parties by saying that he will not defect from “where there is malaria to a place where there is cancer”.
The Rivers governor noted that Akpabio became an uncommon governor under the PDP and not on the platform of the APC.
