Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress, APC’s presidential candidate, needs the votes of Rivers state, not the logistical support of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state, according to Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State.

 

When he opened the Akpabu-Itu-Umudiogha route in Rivers’ Emohua Local Government Area on Tuesday, Umahi made this declaration.
