Senate President Akpabio reveals source of N200m he gave Wike
Senate President Godswill Akpabio has revealed the source of the N200 million he gave to the former governor of Rivers state, Nyesom Wike, to support his campaign for election in 2015.
Wike, at a thanksgiving ceremony in Port Harcourt on Sunday, June 18, revealed that Akpabio donated N200 million to support his governorship ambition in 2015.
Akpabio claimed that the N200 million he gave to Wike in 2015 was not from the purse of Akwa Ibom state, where he was the governor then, but was from his savings from the telecom sector, where he was a managing director before he became the governor.
Akpabio tells Wike how to work for Tinubu’s re-election
The president of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has made a plea to former Governor Nyseom Wike and his associates, known as the G5, to form another aggrieved faction within the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2027.
Akpabio said the new group would work to ensure a smooth victory for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the upcoming 2027 presidential election, just like the G5 did in the last election.
The Senate president said this during a thanksgiving reception held at the private residence of former Governor Nyesom Wike in Rivers state on Sunday, June 18.
