Nyesom Wike, the Rivers State Governor has denied filing a suit against the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP; its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar; and Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal.
At the commissioning of House of Assembly Quarters in Port Harcourt, Wike insisted that he was focused on delivering the dividends of democracy to the people of the state, and had no time for any court action.
He alleged that groups supporting the party’s candidates were the ones behind the report of his court action.
“People have called me that I went to court against Atiku Abubakar.
“I want to state categorically, that I didn’t go to court. I just want to say it for Nigerians to know. I have kept quiet. I am busy delivering the dividends of democracy.
“If they lose election, nobody should call my name. I have told the candidate.
“If I wanted to go to court, I would have gone to court within two weeks.
“It is the candidate’s group that are doing all these things. Let the world hear. They are the ones plotting all these things, thinking they will spoil my name.
“We are supposed to be talking about winning election.”
