Ministerial List: Wike’s Ally Debunks Removal Of Name By DSS

Nigerians and indeed, supporters of the immediate past governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike have been enjoined to dismiss the insinuations that his name has been removed from the ministerial list by the department of state service, DSS.

Reacting to the allegation making the rounds that former Governor Wike raised his voice against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu when he was informed that his name and that of the former Kano state governor, prof Abdulahi Ganduje did not scale through the DSS scrutiny, Chief Tony Okocha, Coordinator of Bola Ahmed Tinubu Vanguard, BAT-V in rivers state, said “the rumour is a complete work of mischief makers”.

Okocha noted that the author of that “fake news” is neither a staff of the Presidential Villa nor an official of the DSS. “Where then did he get the story that Wike’s name was removed by the security service?”

The chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Rivers State chapter examined that the newspaper, Pilot, that the said story was published was the same paper that carried a fake news that former President Muhammadu Buhari was dead some years ago. “This later turned out to be fake. Nigerians should disregard such fake news as there is no iota of truth in it”.

Okocha who confirmed that former Governor Wike’s name was still on the ministerial list, questioned who was nominated to replace the former Governor to fill the Rivers State ministerial slot if the fake news was true!

“Wike’s name is still very much in the list. Remember that these people never believed that former governor Wike would be considered for a ministerial appointment so the best they can do is to resort to fake news.

“What offence did Wike commit to warrant his name being removed from the list? Which court of law in Nigeria found him guilty of any form of corruption. Lies from the pit of hell”, he said.
