Wike Criticizes Atiku and Obi Over Rivers LG Poll Comments

Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has criticized Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi over their comments on the Rivers State local government election. Wike responded to Atiku and Obi's statements declaring the election illegal, stating that the poll was legally conducted.

He commended the fairness of the election and accused Atiku of being aware of the emergency rule signed in 2004. Wike also criticized Obi, calling him a "rascal" and questioning his moral authority to speak on election conduct.

Wike highlighted his own experience in governance and elections, contrasting it with Obi's tenure as the governor of Anambra State. The exchange underscores political tensions and differing perspectives on the election's legitimacy.
