Wike Denied Facebook Postings On Taraba Annulled Election

Facebook post reads……………………………
“Rape of Justice
Election Tribunal could sit in Boko Haram main zone in Borno and Yobe whereas rivers and Taraba was moved to Abuja due to security reasons is Yobe and Borno more secured than Rivers and Taraba? Our democrasy is crying under APC and Buhari”

River’s state governor Wike in his statement on Monday, signed by Simeon Nwakaudu, Special Assistant (Media ), enjoined Nigerians to disregard the fake Facebook posting criticising the judgment of the Taraba State Governorship Election Tribunal judgment as he Wike does not run any such Facebook page where the uncomplimentary remarks were made.

He urged all the social media platforms and blogs that have published the post from the fake Facebook Page, ‘Nyesom Wike’ to pull down same as they do not represent the views of Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike.

He went futher to say that last week, Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike at a well-publicised stakeholders meeting at the Government House, Port Harcourt declared that he has never authorised any aide to make uncomplimentary remarks on the judiciary. The governor as a lawyer respects the judiciary and will never disparage it.

This is yet another scheme by the opposition to use unverified social media platforms to mislead members of the public. Governor Wike will never be distracted by these unfortunate illegal political schemes.
