Nwoko challenges Wike to disclose source of livelihood outside politics

Nigerian businessman and former senator, Ned Nwoko, has accused Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State of squandering the Paris Club refund that accrued to the state and local government areas for self-gratification.

Mr Nwoko, who is the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senatorial candidate for Delta North, stated this in a statement on Tuesday.

Mr Nwoko has been engaging the Rivers governor whom he accused of instigating the crisis in the PDP for selfish reasons after failing to win the presidential primary of the party and also failing to secure a slot as a running mate to Atiku Abubakar, the PDP presidential candidate.

Mr Nwoko had earlier described Mr Wike as a “nuisance” and called for the expulsion of the governor from the party.

The Rivers State Commissioner for Information, Chris Finebone, had responded by saying that Mr Nwoko was attacking the governor for stopping the payment of $418 million that the Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, asked the Governor of the Central Bank, Godwin Emefiele, to release to Linas International Ltd, a company owned by Mr Nwoko over the Paris Club refund.
