Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state, has threatened to flog “the hell out” of Babangida Aliyu, a former governor of Niger state for calling him a dictator.
Aliyu in an interview last weekend, allegedly said a certain “dictator in Rivers State” was behind the travails of PDP National Chairman, Uche Secondus, because of a “personal ambition to either become Vice President or a political godfather.”
Reacting to this in a video that since gone viral, Wike speaking at the government house in Port Harcourt, Rivers state capital, said it is unfortunate that PDP still allows the former governor to be its member.
The Governor added that “no PDP congress has been held in Niger State because of Aliyu’s dictatorial tendencies.”
He expressed;
Aliyu thinks it was that time they were moving everywhere, saying that they were fighting [the] PDP. We would have flogged the hell out of him. Rivers state is not… I will flog the hell out of him here.
It is unclear if Wike meant to go physical on Aliyu but below is the viral video;
