Wike invites Buhari, Peter Obi, and Oshiomole to commission Rivers projects.

River State Governor Nyesom Wike has invited President Muhammadu Buhari and former Governor Adams Oshiomole, among others, to commission projects in the state.

The commissioning has been planned as a week-long event beginning today, Monday, November 14, and ending on Friday, November 18, 2022.

Wike also invited members of opposition political parties, including the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Labour Party (LP), to the “Fourth Quarter 2022 Project Commissioning” event.

On Friday, Buhari is expected to dedicate the Nabo Graham Douglas Campus of the Nigerian Law School in Obio/Akpor.

On Wednesday, Oshiomhole is expected to open the Rumuepirikom Flyover in Obio-Akpor, while Obi will open the Nkpolu-Oroworokwo Flyover in Port Harcourt, the state capital, on Thursday.

Aside from Buhari and Oshiomole, Wike invited Peter Obi, the LP’s presidential candidate, and HRH Aminu Ado Bayero, the Emir of Kano, to the project’s commissioning.

On Monday, the monarch will open the Dr Peter Odili Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Diagnostic and Treatment Centre in Rivers’ Obio-Akpor Local Government Area.

Remember that this is not the first time Wike has invited opposition party leaders to commission projects in Rivers.

Wike invited Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to the inauguration of the Orochiri-Worukwo (Waterline Junction) flyover in Port Harcourt in August.

In addition, the Lagos State Government invited Wike to a women’s conference in October, where he endorsed APC’s Sanwo-Olu for a second term.

Wike’s actions enraged the PDP’s Lagos governorship candidate, Olajide Adediran, also known as Jandor.

The Rivers governor, along with four other PDP governors known as the G5, have demanded Iyorchia Ayu’s resignation, claiming that northerners should not be the PDP’s national chairman and presidential candidate.

However, Ayu, a Benue native, has insisted on remaining in office until the end of his four-year term, even as the G5 made his resignation a condition for supporting Adamawa-born Atiku Abubakar’s presidential bid in 2023.

Wike and his allies have also been absent from the campaigns of the PDP’s presidential candidate, Abubakar Atiku.
