During the inauguration of the Aluu-Omagwa Link Road, the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, stated that all political parties must pay before campaigning in his state, pointing out that the money paid serves as maintenance for any damages caused during the campaign.
However, he revealed that the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, paid him before campaigning in his state.
He further revealed that he supported their campaign with vehicles and securities, adding that they followed due process before campaigning in his state, and they left.
According to him, “If other parties applied, Peter Obi came, I gave him Elekiahia, the Gowon Liberation Stadium, I provided vehicles, I provided securities, and they paid, and they went for their campaign.” Have they not left?
So if you want to campaign, apply to us, we would give you the biggest stadium. “
