Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has claimed that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and its presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar are arrogant because someone in the presidency is backing them.
Speaking in Rivers State on Thursday, Wike said the same forces at the Presidency promised someone the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) but failed to deliver it.
According to him, the National Chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu, refused to honour his promise to resign because he was banking on the presidential backing.
He promised to reveal the identity of the person at the Presidency backing Atiku and the PDP
