Dino Melaye, the spokesperson of the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, has made shocking revelations about Governor Nyesom Wike’s plans for the southern presidency agenda. Melaye accused Wike of pushing for the agenda because he was not chosen as Atiku Abubakar’s running mate. During an interview on AIT, Melaye revealed that Wike had called him 19 times in two hours, promising him heaven and earth if Atiku announced him as the vice presidential candidate.
“I want to tell you that Wike is a pretentious character, a liar and he has no iota of integrity,” Melaye said. “Wike was calling me when Atiku Abubakar was to announce his running mate. I have records and I have printed it out and I am waiting for him, he called me 19 times in 2 hours begging us to convince Atiku Abubakar to make him the Vice Presidential candidate.”
Melaye also accused Wike of pushing for the chairmanship to the north so as not to affect his ambition of becoming a president. “Wike was the one who brought Ayu, he was the one who sponsored Ayu and that was why Wike made all the governors to endorse Ayu and that was why there was no election in the national chairman’s office during the convention, Ayu was unopposed,” Melaye stated.
He further added that Wike should not be taken seriously because he was under the influence of alcohol. “I don’t believe in such unprincipled, zero integrity character like Nyesom Wike,” Melaye said.
