The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, on Wednesday said he hasn’t endorsed any candidate for the Rivers state gubernatorial election in 2027.
Wike stated this on Wednesday during his monthly media
parley in Abuja.
Wike said that the endorsement will come only after a
meeting by the joint coalition in the state.
He said: “I haven’t endorsed anybody. And I can’t endorse
anybody until the joint coalition meets.”
Questions have been raised concerning the fate of current
governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, in 2027.
The FCT Minister was reported to have endorsed former State
Commissioner for Works, Alabo Dakorinama George Kelly, as his preferred
candidate for the Rivers State governorship election.
Sources disclosed that Wike settled for George after a
closed-door meeting with key political stakeholders in Port Harcourt on Monday.
