Nobody ‘dash’ ⁦Tinubu power, he worked for it – Wike

 Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has stated that power
was not given freely to the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, who he said worked
hard to get it.

 

Wike stated this on Wednesday at a banquet in honour of
Tinubu who was in Rivers State to commission some of the governor’s legacy
projects.

 

He recounted how Tinubu gifted him a white wine in the early
hours of the day when he visited him at his Lagos residence in 2018 to persuade
him to support one of the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for
the 2019 presidential election.

 

He said: “I went to him, I said, sir, I heard you can’t find
your feet in APC. Why not join us and support one of these our candidates to
win the 2019 election? He asked me, who are these your candidates? I mentioned
them, [and] he said, look, if it’s these ones you’ve, I’ll support Buhari 200
times.

 

“He [Tinubu] gave me white wine that early morning. And I
respected him. I know he is prepared. Nobody dash him power. All of us, we saw
it. He went and worked for the power, and you will see the benefits of it. When
they dash you power, you slack; but when you fight for power, you work.”
