First Lady Gets U.S.$1 Million From Wike Monthly - Amaechi
Rivers State governor and director-general of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCPCO), Mr Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, has alleged that the First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan receives the sum of one million dollars monthly from the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, Chief Ezebunwo Nyesom Wike.
Amaechi disclosed this at the weekend while speaking at Isiokpo, headquarters of Ikwerre local government area of the state, during a special praise and worship session organised by the Ikwerre Youth Movement (IYM) and the Ikwerre Women Forum (IWF).
The governor said, "Do you know that the PDP gubernatorial candidate, Nyesom Wike has been giving one million dollars monthly to the wife of the president, Mrs Patience Jonathan? He has been doing this to gain political favour in the Presidency and to retain the favour.
"For eight years our Okrika brother (Senator George Sekibo) has been occupying the Senate(Rivers East) seat and now it is the turn of an Ikwerre son.
but, Nyesom Wike has gone ahead to accept another four years for George Thompson Sekibo. This is not acceptable, Chief Andrew Uchendu will take over this time, one man called Nyesom Wike cannot sell Ikwerre birth right."
He accused Wike of sponsoring the killing of an APC member who was shot dead recently in the home town of the PDP gubernatorial flag bearer, and accused the police of bias as it could not arrest the PDP hoodlums who committed the murder.
