The Rivers State Government has denied reports that the Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, defected from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), because the Rivers Governor, Nyesom Wike, had promised him a presidential ticket.
In a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Monday, the State Commissioner of Information and Communications, Emma Okah, said the comments were false and rather unfair to the governor.
He also stated that, “Governor Wike has not discussed the political ambition of Governor Tambuwal with Senator Tinubu anyway and so Senator Tinubu cannot rely on mere rumours to speak unfairly about the Governor in the way he did”.
