Speaking in Ochigba, Ahoada East Local Government Area of Rivers State, during a year-end Thanksgiving meeting with Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders, Wike said the criticism he faces stems from his commitment to ensuring political agreements benefit his followers.

“After Tinubu, the next most abused politician today is me. Why are they abusing me? Because they know that agreement is agreement,” Wike said.

He stressed that agreements should be respected and implemented fully, warning against empty promises. “When we have agreed on something let’s implement it; if we can’t implement it, don’t even come for it,” he added.
