2023 Presidential election: Wike finally reveals real reason Atiku lost to Tinubu

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has declared that the inability of Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to win the presidential election was a direct consequence of ignoring the warnings of the integrity group, the G5 governors of the PDP.

Wike made this assertion while noting that the eventual fate that befell the PDP could have been avoided if the party's national leadership had heeded the several appeals and demands on them to adopt the principle of equity, fairness and justice.

On Monday, March 7, while inaugurating a project in the state, Wike noted that the presidency had finally returned to the South.
