“Thankful For Fine Evening” – Governor Wike drops cryptic message after reportedly meeting with Tinubu In France
The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has shared a photo of himself in Turkey with an encrypted caption hours after he was rumoured to have met with the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu in France.
Wike, who lost the presidential ticket of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party to former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, is said to be having a long battle with his party also after losing the Vice-President’s slot to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State.
According to Sahara Reporter, in a Facebook post on Thursday, Joe Igbokwe, an APC chieftain in Lagos, had claimed Wike met with Tinubu, in France.
“While they are on social media abusing everybody, Governor Wike goes to France to meet Asiwaju. Abuse, calling names, hate, and bigotry are no strategy. They have hated and abused PMB (President Muhammadu Buhari) since 2015 and now they have transferred the aggression to Asiwaju. We wait and see,� he had written in a now deleted post.
Hours after Igbokwe’s post was pulled down, Wike on his Twitter handle simply shared a picture of himself in Turkey with the caption, “Thankful for a fine evening.�
