“Towards the appropriate time we will ring the bell, when you hear the bell, the decision has been taken” – Governor Wike says of a preferred Presidential candidate

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has hinted that talks with his political allies on the presidential candidate to support in the February 25 election will soon be concluded.

Wike spoke at St. Martin’s Anglican Church, Omagwa town, venue of the flag-off of Local Government Campaign of Rivers State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ikwerre Council yesterday.

This is contained in a statement by Special Assistant on Media to Wike, Kelvin Ebiri. He said Rivers people have been duly sensitised and told to vote for the PDP governorship, Senate, House of Representatives and state House of Assembly candidates.

He said the beauty of the coming election is that it will leave no room for any form of electoral manipulation and intimidation from security personnel.

The governor, urged the people to remain calm, saying when the final decision on the presidential candidate is taken, the Rivers electorate will be notified.

“As we finish from here now, you’ll go home and start working towards the appropriate time when we will ring the bell. When you hear the bell, know that the decision has been taken.”

He said the success of his administration is what the consolidation team, to be headed by the PDP governorship candidate, Siminialayi Fubara, will consolidate on.
