PDP crisis: What I did to ensure Makarfi’s victory – Wike

The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has revealed what he did to ensure Senator Ahmed Makarfi defeated Ali Modu Sheriff at the apex court.

The governor said he turned into a prayer warrior while the legal battle between the two Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, leaders lasted.

Wike gave the indication during a thanksgiving service in Port Harcourt to celebrate the victory of Markafi at the Supreme Court.

He told his party members that only those who had faith in God had hope in life.

He said, “If you don’t have faith in God, then you have no hope in life.”

He said Rivers was the only state without plan B while the leadership tussle lingered, which means he had all his political hope particularly for 2019, in PDP.

He added, “It was the same day I got an award in Lagos that Sheriff got judgment.

“APC leaders were happy that they would want to see where we would contest elections.

“The same God that did it for us in January 2016 is the same God that has done it again. Let us have faith in God.

“God saved PDP because of Rivers State. We are the only state without plan b.

Wike said that, “victory is sweet”, and that God almighty will continue to put his political opponents to shame.
