Governor of Rivers state Nyesom Wike has disclosed that the opposition People’s Democratic Party PDP will reclaim the presidential seat in the 2019 general elections.

 

Wike while addressing party faithful on Sunday night in Asaba at the first National Working Committee meeting of the party also said if democratic principles are respected, those claiming to be seeking a second term after a woeful performance would have declined contesting elections.

 

“We are going to win the Presidency in 2019. We take it for granted that we have won our governorship, National Assembly and State Assembly seats.

 

“Frankly speaking, if Nigeria is a country where democracy is democracy, so many won’t talk about contesting election. Because first of all you need to tell the people what you have done for them.

 

“What will they come to tell Delta people that they have done in the area? Nothing. What is their confidence? What will they say they have done in the Niger Delta?” he asked.
