It is Time to Reap Where You Have Sown – APC Cheiftain Tells Wike

A chieftain of the All Progressives Party (APC) and former Chief of Staff, Rivers State Government House, Chief Tony Okocha, has expressed readiness to receive former governor of the State, Nyesom Wike, if he decides to defect to the ruling party.

Okocha, while briefing journalists recently in Port Harcourt, said the role Wike played in the emergence of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as Nigeria’s incumbent President could not be overemphasised, noting that some persons want to reap where they didn’t sow.

Okocha stated:

“We are noticing that some persons who abandoned Tinubu when Tinubu needed them most and voyaged outside the shores are now relying on their relationships one way or the other to begin to make some sense of entitlement.

“He who pays the Piper dictates the tune. When it was difficult, even when the national body could not oblige us with funds for the national rally here, the magic was done by somebody.”

He stressed that the former Rivers State Governor should join the APC to reap from his efforts in seeing Tinubu as President.

His words:

“Our demand is that nobody should rob Peter to pay Paul. Our own share of the booty given to us should be handed over to His Excellency Nyesom Wike.

“We are confident that as soon as it gets to him, he knows those who worked for Tinubu, and it will get to us. It is only natural, that is how it should go.”
