Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has said that God may not forgive the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) if it fails to listen to Nigerians yearning for the party to return to power in 2023.
Wike said this while answering questions from journalists during a one-day visit to Bauchi State on Saturday.
In his words, “It is also to make sure that the PDP is united because, if the PDP makes the mistake of not listening to Nigerians, it will be very difficult for God to forgive the PDP.
“This an opportunity to save Nigeria. We, Christians, know that when the Israelites were in problems, God had to bring Moses to lead them.
“This insecurity, this is not the kind of Nigeria we want, it is not the Nigeria where every day you wake up in the morning, the newspaper says, ’40 people have been killed…’ There is no day in Nigeria that people are not being killed.”
“God will never forgive PDP if it (PDP) fails to take advantage of the woeful failure of APC to take over power in Nigeria in 2023 to salvage the country.
“It’s only we (PDP) that can stop the issue of insecurity if we join hands together to fight to save our Nigeria’s tomorrow,” the Rivers governor declared.
Speaking on the presidential ambition of his Bauchi counterpart, Wike said he endorsed Governor Mohammed to emerge Nigeria’s next President, saying that, “I endorse Bauchi State governor, Senator Bala Mohammed, for president come 2023.”
He described Governor Mohammed as overqualified to lead the country from 2023, informing that PDP would gladly welcome qualified politicians like the Bauchi governor to replace the failed leadership of the ruling APC.
