Rivers Gov, Wike’s presidential campaign posters spotted in Abuja
As the race for President Buhari’s successor gets tougher ahead of 2023 general election, yet another contender has enter the ring; at least posters say so.
Presidential campaign posters bearing the name and pictures of the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, have been spotted on streets and across major roads in Abuja.
The posters that are in two different types were sighted on Monday morning by IDOMA VOICE correspondent.
They were posted in strategic locations on the popular Herbert Macaulay Way in the Central Business District of the FCT.
Some were seen pasted on the fence of a building that served as the Buhari/Osinbajo Presidential Campaign Office in 2015 and 2019.
Some others were seen posted close to the headquarters of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and also opposite the Nigeria Defence College popularly called War College.
According to the inscriptions on the posters titled “Rescue Nigeria 2023,” they were produced by the National President of Rescue Nigeria Movement, Jingiri Bala Mato.
The posters which bear the logo of PDP read, “Rescue Nigeria from insecurity, poverty, bandit killing. Support Chief Barr Nyesom Wike for President, Federal Republic of Nigeria 2023.”
Our correspondent noticed that the governor’s first name, Nyesom, was wrongly spelt as “Nyemsom” in the two different posters.
Wike, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, is serving his second and final term of four years as the governor of the South-South state.
As at the time of filling this report, the Governor or any of his spokesman is yet to react to the development.
