Popular Nigerian activist, Aisha Yesufu, has accused former President, Goodluck Jonathan, of bringing Nyesom Wike to power.
NPO earlier reported that former president had, in a statement over ongoing Rivers local government election and the age-long crisis in the state, cautioned the state’s political players against the crisis.
Jonathan urged them to be patriotic in the pursuit of their political ambition and relevance.
Reacting to the ex-president’s statement, Yesufu labelled Wike as the major cause of Rivers crisis.
The #BringBackOurGirls Movement convener recalled how Jonathan had influenced Nyesom Wike’s emergence as Rivers state governor.
“Wike that is causing all these problems was brought in by GEJ and his wife Patience.
“Even when Wike was defeated, the Supreme Court was used to say that
CARD READER WAS NOT ADMISSIBLE IN COURT and that judgment reversed the gain of the then amended electoral Act just as the 2023 Supreme Court ruling on the Presidential election reversed the gain of the amended 2022 electoral Act” Yesufu wrote.
