We will finish it 28 and 29. But if I die, dead persons don\u2019t contest elections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I know that God has promised me that I won\u2019t die. There is nothing that will make me withdraw from it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is what I want to do for my country. Before I came out I told my wife and she asked me to go. If I didn\u2019t tell my wife and she became angry and asked me not to go then I would obey\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Wike said he would not step down for any consensus candidate, saying consensus should be done with equity, fairness and justice.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cOur constitution in PDP section 7 subsection 3 recommended rotations and elections. If the consensus they want to do is to gang up against one or two persons, why will I join such consensus?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese people talking about consensus, are their hands clean? Their hands are not clean. It is the more you look, the less you see. Those running elections are the ones that should be talking consensus, not the party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe presidential aspirants from the North said they wanted to do consensus among themselves. Later they wanted it to be everybody but I said no.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wike insisted that he had more experience in governance and better capacity to fly the PDP flag than former President Atiku Abubakar and other PDP aspirants.<\/p>\n<p>On why he didn\u2019t visit the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, when he went to Edo to woo delegates, Wike said: \u201cNobody will force me to visit anybody. Is there any law that says if I go to a place I must visit somebody?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the work he did for Obaseki\u2019s reelection was for the PDP to enable the party win the election insisting that he didn\u2019t do it for Obaseki.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat am I dragging with him? Are we boyfriends and girlfriends? He is the governor of Edo while I am the governor of Rivers. I went there to look for delegates and nobody should tell me how to look for delegates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know while people will be worried that I went to look for delegates without passing through the governor. It is not a law,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike has said only death will stop him from contesting the 2023 presidential election.
