2023: Nigerians Mock Wike After Atiku Chose Okowa As Running Mate

 

The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike has been mocked on social media following the emergence of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as the running mate of the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

 

Okowa was unveiled today.

 

Speaking at the unveiling ceremony, Atiku revealed that he chose Okowa because he has the qualities to be President and has an appreciation of the deep rot in which the country has been put into.

 

The PDP Presidential candidate added that he chose Okowa because he is dedicated, and reliable and would support him wholeheartedly to steer the country to greater heights.

 

Atiku also said he is equally hopeful that Okowa would help him and the party regain power in the 2023 presidential election and eject the APC from Aso Rock.

 

Okowa’s emergence as Atiku’s running mate has, however, generated a barrage of reactions on social media as netizens mocked Wike who as a strong contender in the race for the VP slot could not cliche the position.

 

Reacting to Atiku’s confirmation of Okowa via Instagram handle, a netizen wrote; ”After Wike has wasted rivers state people’s money (5million dollars) just to get a vice, they nor still choose am, I think no one wants to associate with loquacious human being sha. But then, waste of time for you all, because Peter Obi is the real 2023 deal lol”

 

Another netizen said; ”wike said I don’t wanna be Vice President I want to be a president”
