Gabriel Pidomson, the governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress in Rivers State, has challenged FCT Minister Nyesom Wike to an open debate on governance in the state. Pidomson claims that Wike is obstructing the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Kingsley Chinda, from addressing the state's residents about his campaign promises ahead of the February election.
In a video posted to his official Facebook page, Pidomson accused Wike of mismanaging Rivers State for eight years and continued to govern through proxy for the past three years. He characterized the state as a "failed project" and demanded that Wike explain the state's financial situation over the past 12 years. Pidomson stated, "APC needs to tell us what they have for Rivers people.
It's not about carrying your son behind you and not allowing him to speak to Rivers people about what he has to offer." He concluded by challenging Wike to a debate on the state's governance.
