Governor of Rivers state, Nyesom Wike says he will complete his four year tenure, in spite of the ruling of the tribunal, which nullified his election.

Wike said he still has faith in the judiciary, despite the fact that the tribunal ruling did not go as planned.

The governor spoke on Sunday, at the Rivers state government thanksgiving, where he also took a swipe at his former boss, Rotimi Amaechi.

“We will win and I will complete my four years tenure as the governor of Rivers State. The thanksgiving service today is very significant because if what enemies planned had work, I wouldn’t have been governor today.

“The nullification of my election by tribunal sitting in Abuja shows that justice is ours. I am surprised that some people are celebrating over the judgement, when they described the judgement against their candidates at the National Assembly as judicial 419.

It is now that they have confidence in judiciary. In spite of the judgement, we still have hope in the judiciary. I want to beg you, don’t be provoked; I know what happened at the weekend is provoking. But, I know what their plans are; that was why I am begging you to be calm.”

“I was minister in this country and I was given the highest responsibility and today some people are struggling to be a minster. They are celebrating to be a minister as if nobody has been a minister in this state.”
