Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has described as untrue the claim by the Director-General of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council in the state, Dr Abiye Sekibo, that he (Wike) sponsored an assassination attempt on him.

The governor declared that he had never sponsored assassins against anybody.

Wike spoke at the Rivers East Senatorial District rally of the PDP that held at the Yakubu Gowon Stadium, Port Harcourt, on Saturday.

He said, “Let me use the opportunity to debunk an allegation that some persons may have made that one Abiye Sekibo said that I sponsored assassination; attempted assassination on his life.

“I want to state categorically clear, all of us from Rivers State know who is who. We know who has killed so many people in this state.”

He also denied the allegation of burning the venue approved by his administration for the PDP Presidential Campaign Council to hold its presidential campaign rally.

Wike said, “So, we granted approval for the candidate (presidential) of the party to hold their rally at Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium. I do know that if you go there today, no stadium has been burnt.

And so it is impossible for anybody to say somebody’s life was attempted and then the place was burnt down. It is not correct.”

Continuing, he said, “And if there is anything like that, the person should report the matter to the police and all those found culpable will face the wrath of the law.

“This is not the first time. If you know you don’t have the capacity to mobilise support which you have promised, some people say so. Do not carry propaganda against innocent people.”
