Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike says he has no regrets promising the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi logistical support for his presidential campaigns in the state.
Wike promised the former Anambra State governor logistical support during a project commissioning in Port Harcourt on last Thursday.
Wike, who said Obi had the qualities to lead Nigeria, added that if the LP presidential candidate had not left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), he wouldn’t have realised his dream of contesting the presidential election.
Wike, at a banquet organised by the Rivers State chapter of the PDP for the aggrieved PDP G5 governors in Port Harcourt on Saturday, said Obi, as a former governor of Anambra State, deserved respect and state protection.
He promised to release vehicles and security for Obi’s campaign in Rivers State.
He, however, denied insinuations that he and the other governors who have been at loggerheads with the leadership of the PDP have endorsed Obi.
He said that they were still consulting and would soon make known their decision to the public.
