Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has explained why he met with former president Olusegun Obasanjo, peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, his counterparts in the All Progressive Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Peter Obi of the Labour Party in London, United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

Wike said his team was more interested in a better Nigeria, and they are consulting widely with those who mean well for the country.<\/p>\n

The governor stated this while addressing journalists at the Port Harcourt International Airport, shortly on arrival from London on Friday.<\/p>\n

In the company of the Rivers State governor were the governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom and Abia State governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI can confirm that this is the first time as a team that we are meeting with presidential candidates.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe met with the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC and we met with our leader, former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe met the presidential candidate of Labour Party. We also met with our presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar. For whatever it\u2019s worth, consultation is ongoing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever we are talking about, is for the interest of Nigeria and Nigerians. It is not parochial and tied to one person or group of persons.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe that with what is going on, it will be for the interest of Nigerians at the end of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wike decried the situation where standard, training and competence have always been traded for mediocrity.<\/p>\n

He said leadership should not be about one individual and the interest of his family, but about the collective interest of everybody.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsultation is still ongoing. Never mind some people who do not believe in the existence of this country.<\/p>\n

\u201cLeadership is not about you and your family. Leadership is about everybody. It\u2019s unfortunate that we are in a country now where a man finishes eight years as a governor and brings his own son as a governor too and as a member of the National Assembly.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s only in this part of the world that you can see that when we are talking about poverty everywhere. These are people who do not mean well for this Nigeria,\u201d he stated<\/p>\n

Wike also wondered why religion and ethnicity are used as the tenable identity to describe Nigerians when competence is required.<\/p>\n

Continuing, Wike<\/a> said, \u201cThe only identity they have in this country is religion and ethnicity, nothing more. It\u2019s either, I\u2019m a Christian or I\u2019m a Moslem, I\u2019m a Fulani or I\u2019m an Igbo. Nigeria cannot move forward except they think it will be them. That\u2019s where we are.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are in a country where someone with a primary school certificate can be appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs. That tells you how bad this country has become.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut with our consultation, all these will be a thing of the past. No amount of intimidation or blackmail will deter us. We are determined to right the wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his response, the leader of the team and Benue State governor, Samuel Ortom, noted that they have met with renowned persons in the last few days because of their belief that Nigeria is in distress and required concerted effort to rescue it.<\/p>\n

He stated that they had fruitful talks with those they had met and it was beyond partisan politics, because well-meaning Nigerians need to work together in ensuring that Nigeria survives.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us, we are looking at the larger picture. Nigeria today is in distress. It is about what can we do. No man or woman alone can get it right for our country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are looking at how we can harness ideas and put ourselves together to ensure that we get out of the present challenge we are in Nigeria today.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom top to bottom, consider what has happened from 2015 and where we are today. So, what we are doing is a concern that we have for our country, Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is beyond partisan politics. We are looking on how we can come together and find a way of ensuring that Nigeria survives. Nigeria is on drip, Nigeria is on oxygen and it is about how can we get out of this,\u201d Ortom said.<\/p>\n

He stated that the three separate meetings they had within the week were worthwhile session for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe consultation is going on and will continue to go on. We are still going to meet here. We are still going to meet some persons some other time and see how we can work to ensure that the project Nigeria works.\u201d<\/p>\n

On his part, Abia State governor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, emphasised that they are on a mission and are determined to find a way of rescuing Nigeria.<\/p>\n

He noted that they are mindful of what society to bequeath to the present generation, their children and grandchildren alike.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cAnd this is a country with great potential and we have to protect it well. We think that we need to engage across the board.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are also looking at speaking with civil society organisations and those who have ideas, with Nigerians in the diaspora.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the resources available in this country have to come together at this time to see how best we can move Nigeria forward.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
