But reacting, in a statement on Saturday, October 19, sent to Legit.ng, Atiku said Wike still harbours bitterness from his defeat to Atiku at the 2022 party presidential primaries of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The statement was signed by Paul Ibe, Atiku’s media adviser.

It partly reads:

“Wike’s comments are nothing more than a string of inanities, lacking substance and driven by personal grievances.

“If he truly believes Nigerians are content with the current state of affairs under the government he serves, it reveals a deeper truth: his priorities lie not with the people but with himself.

“This self-absorption is evident in his preoccupation with domestic affairs in Rivers rather than his ministerial responsibilities.”

Legit.ng reports that Wike had been at loggerheads with Atiku since the latter won the primary election of the PDP and picked the former governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa, as running mate for the 2023 presidential election.

All efforts by some leaders of the party to reconcile the duo were not successful.
