A former Governor of Rivers State, Peter Odili, may have abandoned the immediate past chief executive, Nyesom Wike, as he on Thursday declared the current Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, the political leader of the state.
Odili was known to have been very close to Wike, who has been having a running battle with Fubara, who got to office upon Wike’s anointing.
But in a very suggestive way, Odili said Fubara was the leader in spite of his age.
He described him as a politician leading the people with the strength of a lion, while saying he had achieved a lot within a year he had been in office.
Meanwhile, other notable politicians, including members of the state House of Assembly have reaffirmed their support for Wike whom they stressed was the People’s Democratic Leader.
