The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has vowed not to support former President Goodluck Jonathan if he gets the Presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to contest the 2023 election.
Wike said his stand on this is known to the former president if he joined the APC and clinched the party’s ticket to run for the Presidency in 2023.
He said: “I am a PDP member, if former President Goodluck Jonathan picks a ticket to run in my party, I will support him. I can’t do anti-party. But if he picks a ticket to run in APC, I won’t support him because I can’t do anti-party.
“He knows I won’t support him in APC even if he is from the South. I don’t do that kind of politics. It is party we are talking about and I don’t play ethnicity.”
There have been speculations that the ruling APC was considering luring former president Jonathan to the party ahead of the coming 2023 election after some party members paid him a visit for an undisclosed reasons.
