In a recent speech to the people of Rivers State, Governor Nyesom Wike has called on them to vote against his political opponents and enemies in the upcoming presidential and national assembly elections.

 

While inaugurating the Ogu-Ekporo-Kpogor-Wakama Road in the state, Wike urged the people to “pepper” those who oppose him and the state of Rivers.

The Governor’s call to action has been met with mixed reactions, with some people criticizing it as a call for violence and others seeing it as an expression of the people’s right to vote and make their voices heard. Wike promised to return to the area to thank the people if they obey his instructions and vote for the right candidates.

Wike stated, “Happiness is our own. Anger is their own. You want us to pepper them? Are you ready to pepper them? You’ll pepper them on Saturday. I will come back after Saturday to thank you again, and before I leave (office), I will give you another thing (gift).”

The Governor emphasized that the people of Rivers State deserve the best and that is why his government is doing projects. He expressed his happiness that the road project was promised and delivered accordingly. Governor Wike called on the people to reciprocate his goodwill by voting against his political opponents on Saturday.

“I have said it severally that our people deserve the best. I don’t see why some communities could not be linked up with roads. So, having made my promises and fulfilled them, I hope you all will fulfill your promises too? On Saturday, you’ll do your own work to make us happy and make those people angry,” he said.

It is important to remember that democracy is about the people’s power to vote and make their voices heard, and this is a crucial time for young Nigerians to participate in the process. Governor Wike’s statements are a reminder of the power that voting carries, and how important it is for the people of Rivers State to participate in the democratic process to ensure that their voices are heard.

As the election approaches, it is important to remain calm and peaceful, and to exercise our democratic right to vote for the candidates that we believe will best serve our interests. Let us remember that our actions have consequences and that every vote counts towards shaping the future of our country.
