Kogi: PDP Will Fail If It Gives Dino Guber Ticket – Wike

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, on Tuesday warned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi State against giving their governorship ticket to Dino Melaye, spokesman of the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

Wike, who has been at loggerhead with Atiku and by extension, Dino, stated that the former senator will fail if allowed to fly the party’s flag in the forthcoming election.

The governor stated this while addressing selected journalists in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, adding that Dino lacked the capacity to govern a state.

According to Wike, “If you give Dino the governorship ticket, you know he will fail; there is no way he can win. Why will Kogi people say they would vote for a candidate like Dino?

“People can’t vote for Dino because he is from Kogi; Dino does not have what it takes to govern the state or be a governor. It’s not by coming on television to act drama or insult Wike.”

Last week, Melaye joined the Kogi State governorship race as PDP prepares to hold its primary election in the state.
