Governor Nyesom Wike

The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has urged Governor Nyesom Wike to declare his assets.

The Rivers APC further accused Wike of delaying the declaration due to the “skeletons in his cupboard.”

This was contained in a statement released on Tuesday, June 16, 2015, by the State APC Chairman, Davies Ikanya.

It reads in part:

“They have been waiting for their caretaker governor to follow the path of honour by declaring his assets, but he has conveniently chosen not to do so because he apparently has skeletons in his cupboard.”

“There is, however, no hiding place for Wike as assets declaration is not optional but compulsory.”

Meanwhile, the PDP in Lagos State has also called on Governor Akinwunmi Ambode to declare his assets publicly before June 29 or risk being branded a “pretender governor”.
