Buhari won in 2019 because PDP negotiated with him – Wike alleges

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has accused some members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, of negotiating with President Muhammadu Buhari to see to his victory in the 2019 General election

He disclosed this during the commissioning of the Rivers State University campus in Etche, Rivers State, on Tuesday.

According to him, when they came to him to be a part of the negotiation, he refused as he was after the interest of his party.

He said, “When they were going to negotiate with President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019, they came to me and I said no; no negotiation; PDP must win. I said no.

“That was why Buhari won the election. Those of them who made sure PDP never survived since 2015, that destroyed PDP, I see them today opening their mouths.

“Those of them who left this party are today calling us boys. The boys that stayed back and kept the party while those of them that founded the party left.

“Since you are a Rivers man, you don’t need to be intimidated by anybody. Some people told me be careful, they will kill you. Who told you that you would not die first before you come for me.”
