David Umahi, the governor of Ebonyi state, has requested that Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers, be a part of President-elect Bola Tinubu’s cabinet since Wike has a lot to give Tinubu.
On March 27, Governor Umahi made this statement during a speech at a gathering organized by Wike in the Riverson LGA of Obio-Akpor. The story of the general election of 2023, according to Umahi, cannot be recounted without including Wike.
“I thank God Almighty who had enacted that Asiwaju(Tinubu) and (Kashim) Shettima will win. Look at the process of God, Tinubu was courageous and Shettima. God, directly and indirectly, made Governor Wike very much available, and there is no way you can conclude about the success of the election without mentioning Governor Wike. We will be asking Asiwaju and Shettima to please bring Governor Wike to the core administration of the federal government. He has a lot to offer. He has a lot to offer for the unity of the country. It is not all about party now, it is about the unity of the country, it is how to move this country forward and reunite our people.”Governor Umahi said
