Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has explained the omission of the pictures of the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar from the party’s campaign posters in the state.

Governor Wike accused Atiku Abubakar of disrespecting him by picking the state’s PDP presidential campaign nominees without his contribution.

The governor made the claim while inaugurating the PDP campaign council and the launching of the party’s governorship campaign office in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

Mr Wike added that Atiku selected “enemies” of Rivers into his campaign council for the 2023 general election.

The Rivers state governor stressed that the photos of Atiku and those of the PDP National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, have been missing from the state’s PDP campaign materials because they don’t want him to campaign for the party at the national level.
