The Governor who disclosed this during an interview on Channels Television on Tuesday, asserted that he could provide the right leadership for Nigeria to move forward.

Wike said, “For somebody of my kind and record, a governor and a minister, I don’t even see anybody who will tell me that he is much more qualified than me, I don’t think that is possible.

“Assuming today I want to run for the office of the President, what quality do you think I do not have? Why do you think I cannot provide the right leadership for Nigeria to move forward?

"My fellow politicians should rather talk of the issues and challenges facing the country instead of promoting their candidates. The presidential aspirants must tell the people how they would solve the problems facing the country.”
