Ernest Chinwo in Port Harcourt
Rivers State Governor, Mr. Nyesom Wike, has declared that he will not be vying for the position of Vice President of the country as being speculated in certain quarters ahead of the 2019 elections.
Wike said though some of the presidential aspirants seeking his support have offered him the position of Vice President in the course of political consultations, he insisted that the interest of Rivers State is paramount.
Speaking in an interview with The Osasu Show at the Government House Port Harcourt yesterday, Wike said, “there are aspirants who have promised me the position of the vice president, but I said I will not seek the position.
“Not even in the dream will I seek that position at this point. I am a first term governor and the National Chairman of PDP is from my State and the South-south.
