- The governor of Rivers state, Nyesom Wike, has finally revealed what led to Atiku Abubakar's major defeat in the just-concluded election

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has declared that the inability of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, to win the presidential election was a direct consequence of ignoring the warnings of the integrity group, the G-5 governors of the PDP.
Governor Wike made this assertion while noting that the fate that befell the PDP could have been avoided if the party's national leadership had heeded the numerous appeals and demands for them to adopt the principle of equity, fairness and justice.
