\n
Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has said the South will soon take a position and make a declarative statement on the 2023 presidential election that will shake the country.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n\u201cThe day the South will speak, Nigeria will shake. We believe in the unity of this country, but nobody can threaten us. Nobody should threaten us. We believe in the unity of Nigeria and unity of Nigeria must continue,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n

The Governor spoke at a grand reception organised in his honour by the people of Kalabari ethnic nationality at the Abalama School field in Asari Toru Local Government Area on Saturday.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nWike was conferred a traditional title of Se- Ibidokubo of Kalabari land (He who does good things for Kalabari people) by the Amayanabo of Abonnema, King Gboko Desreal Bob-Manuel.<\/p>\n

He said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would not give its presidential ticket to any candidate, who would serve only the interest of the wealthy few in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

The Governor said some desperate politicians were already scheming for a candidate, who would not serve the interest of the many.<\/p>\n

According to him: \u201cNo amount of gang up can make PDP to give somebody who will want to run election for the interest of some big men, and not for all Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnybody who wants to be candidate of PDP must be candidate for the interest of Nigerians.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
