Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State on Monday commissioned the Worokwu (Waterlines) Flyover in Port Harcourt, a project built by the Rivers State Government under the leadership of Governor Nyesom Wike.
The commissioning also had Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State in attendance after he and Wike met on Sunday.
Both Umahi and Sanwo-Olu are members of the All Progressives Congress and Wike’s recent fraternisation with the APC governors as well as his ostensible disregard for his party’s heavyweights is adding to an already rife rumour of defection to the ruling party.
Although he vowed last month to remain in the PDP because it is a party he “loves so much”, feelers indicate that the former Minister of State for Education might not totally support Nigeria’s main opposition party in the 2023 presidential poll.
Events that have unfolded in the aftermath of the presidential primary election of the PDP adversely affected his relationship with Atiku Abubakar, the presidential flagbearer of the party for the 2023 election.
