The post reads: “This is from a returning officer with INEC. Rumueme 7A 034, Gov. Wike’s Village. Wike is at the rec centre to influence results in favour of APC. Obi won hands down in Rivers.”

But in his reaction, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said the allegation is baseless.

Defending the governor, Ogbonna Nwuke, the director of communication and publicity of the Rivers state PDP campaign council in the state on Sunday, February 26, said the allegation is baseless.

He said:“We are tired of listening to baseless claims that are not backed by verifiable facts. Those who are accusing Governor Nyesom Wike of attempting to suppress votes should show verifiable proof.”

Meanwhile, about 12,404 persons have virtually signed a petition on change.org for the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, and the entirety of the European and Asian continents to cancel the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike’s visa.

Although the petitioners alleged that Governor Wike was destroying the electoral process in Rivers, newsmen could not immediately confirm the veracity of their claims.

Onyebuchi Ezeagabu, the progenitor of the petition alleged that Wike was “operating to destroy electoral process,” adding that the eligibility of the governor’s Visa and that of his family should be revoked.

Ezeagabu wrote, “The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has been operating to destroy electoral process in the state he governs. We demand his and his family’s visas eligibility revoked.”

A signee, Amechi Victor said, “He is against democracy in Nigeria. He just manipulated election results.”
