By our reporter| Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano state on Tuesday said his Rivers counterpart, Nyesom Wike, won’t actualise his presidential ambition, but will be a good loser all the same.
Ganduje, who made the disclosure when he received Wike, who paid him a courtesy call at the government house in Kano, noted that his Rivers counterpart has demonstrated his belief in a united Nigeria.
“I have listened to your speech across the country and I said: ‘This Wike is not wicked, but this Wike is wise’,” he said.
“So, you have come to see your brothers and sisters. Good. You are aspiring for the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We see your efforts.
“And at the end of it, you would lose, but you will be a good loser. I appreciate good losers because they have courage and since you are doing it peacefully, you will live long to fight again.
“In a democracy, if we all belong to one party, then there is no democracy and I foresee good efforts in your presidential bid. You will lose, but you will be a good loser and live to fight a good fight.”
Ganduje said the country’s diversity should be an advantage, as every person has the responsibility of driving change.
He further stated that Party differences should not make us stupid.
“Our diversity is an advantage, even though we failed to utilise our diversity. Each one of us must try in his own bid to change the status quo,” he added.
