Speaking under alcohol’s influence ‘ll ruin you, Atiku warns Wike

The presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has cautioned the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, against speaking under the influence of alcohol.

Atiku gave the words of caution in a statement by his Special Assistant on Public Communications, Phrank Shaibu, in Abuja, yesterday, in response to comments made by the governor while addressing his supporters, in Port Harcourt.

He said: “Wike had, while addressing supporters at the Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State on Friday, stated that he was drinking a 40-year-old whiskey while he was watching members of his own party on TV protesting electoral fraud of February 25 in Abuja.

As they were protesting, I just sat down and took a 40-year whisky. I called some of my friends and opened the 40-year-old whisky as they were protesting’.

“Governor Wike has confirmed what we all know. That he is a drunkard. The protest that was led by Waziri Atiku Abubakar on Monday, March 6, was against the stealing of the mandate of the Nigerian people, which in itself was a noble cause.

“For the sake of clarity, the protest occurred around 11.30am. Governor Wike says he was drinking whisky during the protest at 11.30am on a Monday.

“This reveals the sort of man he is — a dipsomaniac who abandons his official duties on Monday morning to binge on whisky.
