Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers state, has expressed gratitude to Nigerians for ensuring the return of power to the nation's southern region. When inaugurating the 5,000,000-liter aviation fuel dispensing depot at the Ibadan airport in the Alakia part of Oyo state with Seyi Makinde, the state governor, the PDP chieftain maintained that the clamor for a southern presidency had been resolved with the emergence of Bola Tinubu.
The governor of Rivers State expressed his happiness that Makinde was one of those who backed the power shift to the south after President Muhammadu Buhari had been in office for eight years.
"I have told people that those who fight for change, who fight for revolution may not be directed beneficiaries of that fight, but today, history has it that all of us now are aware that when power finishes from the south, it will go to the north; when it finishes from the north, it will come to the south." Wike said.
