River State Governor Nyesom Wike on Friday stated that people surrounding the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, are the ones trying to sabotage his political campaign.

Wike disclosed this while speaking at the commissioning of the Rivers legislative quarters, debunking the reports that he filed a case in court against Atiku.

He said, “I want to tell the candidate (Atiku). It is the candidate group that are doing all these things. Let the world hear. They are the ones plotting all these things, thinking that they will spoil my name. You cannot,” Wike said.

“Yesterday, they said I removed all PDP flags in Rivers State government house. We are supposed to be talking about how you will win election. These people around him (Atiku) are not doing him any favour, rather they are trying to make him not to win election.

“But if that’s what they wish, I wish them good luck. But after my commissioning of projects, nobody should say Wike has started. Because when I start…[laughs] I’ve been on my own, they are looking for trouble when there is no trouble.

“My own is to come out and tell the world, ‘allow peace to reign’. If you say your mother will not sleep, you too, you will not sleep at the appropriate time.

“So I’m busy commissioning projects. Tell those who are supporting you to also go and commission projects to win their states.

“This is our own campaign to make our candidate to win election. I didn’t go to court. I have no reason to go to court. But those of you who are plotting and putting my name, shame will be on all of you. Enough is enough”
