When I saw the letter last night, I was touched. If your principal cannot recommend you, then there is something fundamentally wrong,\u201d Wike said.<\/p>\n<p>However, in a swift scathing response, Melaye castigated the Rivers State Governor, accusing him of disrespect and unwarranted insult on the former vice president whom he said his only crime was beating Wike to the PDP presidential ticket in May 2022.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWike should be ashamed that he has constantly solicited the attention of Atiku by his continuous disrespect and unwarranted insult of a man who did nothing to you. Atiku\u2019s only crime is that he won a transparent presidential primary,\u201d Melaye said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cWike was chief of staff to Amaechi but Amaechi did not trust him enough to hand over to him. I advise him to support whoever he wishes to support as we will no longer tolerate his insolent tendencies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe question is; is there something wrong with Wike that Amaechi did not hand over to him? Why will Prince Uche Secondus, Rt Hon. Austin Okpara, Sen. Lee Meaba, H:E Celestine Omehia, Chief Abiye Sikibo, Sen George Sekibo, Hon. Chinyere Igwe, etc, leave him unceremoniously for Atiku.
