<\/p>\nWike said this while vowing that no desperate person will fly the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, flag in the presidential election.<\/p>\n
The Governor said this when the campaign organization of the Senate President paid him a visit at the Government House in Port Harcourt on Friday.<\/p>\n
Senate President and his entourage were in Port Harcourt to seek support of the PDP delegates from Rivers State ahead of the party\u2019s primaries in October.<\/p>\n
Wike said, \u201cNo desperate person, by the Grace of God, will fly the flag of the party. Anybody, who believes that they must be president, you must be afraid of him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t know what they want the presidency for. All of us know that Buhari had wanted to be president. Today, we have seen why he wanted to be president,\u201d Wike said.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Saraki had stated that he had the capacity to set the country on the path of growth, unity and reconciliation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe country is in dire need of a leader that will provide unity. A leader that will represent everybody from whatever part of the country that you come from. I think I am suited to provide that leadership,\u201d Saraki stated.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a job that requires all of us to be united and focused. Yes, we have individual ambitions, but at any given time, I am ready to sacrifice that ambition for the party.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will continue to appeal to the governors that, during this critical time, we must stay united. We must stay strong for the masses who depend on us to rescue this country,\u201d Saraki said, who is touring the country as part of his campaign to secure delegates to win the PDP presidential nomination ahead of next year\u2019s general election.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, State PDP Chairman, Felix Obuah commended the Senate President for his bold moves towards his aspiration.<\/p>\n
Obuah, receiving the Senate President and his entourage at the party\u2019s secretariat in Port Harcourt, assured Saraki that no one could stop his presidential aspiration if God wills it to happen.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf today, God says you will be the President of this country, nobody, I repeat nobody, can stop you. We are praying for you; be rest assured that that desire that is burning in you will come to fulfillment,\u201d party chairman said.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
