In an exclusive interview with BBC Pidgin, Nyesom Wike, the immediate past governor of Rivers State, has shared his thoughts on what he would do if he were offered an appointment by President Bola Tinubu.

During the interview, the prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) clarified that he has not been officially approached by Tinubu regarding any appointment.

However, if such an opportunity were to arise, Wike revealed that he would first consult his wife and friends to gather their perspectives on the matter.

Additionally, he emphasised the importance of assessing his own readiness and preparation before accepting any role, stating that he would not commit to something he is not fully prepared for.

Wike, however, expressed his desire to take some time off and rest after serving as governor for eight years.
