Rivers State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, has adopted the back-to-sender prayer parlance in response to Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, who said there would be division among the G-5 governors planning to adopt another presidential candidate other than the Peoples Democratic Party’s Atiku Abubakar.
Wike said there would be no division, as he prayed against the victory of leaders who, according to him, jettison agreements.
Okowa had during a rally said some of the governors would go with the PDP.
Reacting, Wike said, ‘It has never worked and it will never work in Jesus name. By sitting down to say there will be division, I send that prayer back to you. I don’t want to discuss them. I have told people to allow the sleeping dog to lie. If you don’t, you too will not sleep.”
He said some of those against the G-5 governors were people who once dumped the party and made it to lose the presidential election in 2015. “I heard them say that PDP is a responsible party. I agree, but they left the PDP in 2014 and made the party lose the election. Today, we are struggling to take over power from APC. Who are those who made us lose this power?” he said.
Speaking on the road project, he said it was already established that his administration would have an unbeatable record in terms of performance.
