Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Amid his face-off with the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has warned those plotting to punish him.<\/p>\n

Wike warned that those plotting to punish him for insisting on fairness and equity in PDP would lose the election.<\/p>\n

He spoke during the Rivers PDP Campaign rally on Wednesday in Mogho Town for Gokana Local Government Area.<\/p>\n

The governor described the perceived threats to deal with him as laughable.<\/p>\n

According to Wike: \u201cMost of you have watched on YouTube where they said they will deal with me when they win. You can\u2019t win.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve not won; you are threatening to deal with some people. Will God allow you? All of them planning and saying they will deal with us; they\u2019ve not been born. I dare them; let them try it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wike has been aggrieved with the PDP leadership since he lost the party\u2019s presidential ticket to Atiku in 2022.<\/p>\n

Following his loss, Wike and the G-5 group called for the removal of Iyorchia Ayu as PDP\u2019s National Chairman.<\/p>\n

Wike said Ayu\u2019s removal would ensure fairness and equity within the PDP.<\/p>\n
