Dele Momodu, a presidential candidate, has reacted to Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike’s statement of interest in running for president.
Recall that Wike declared his ambition to run for president in 2023 on Sunday.
He had stated that he is the finest candidate to depose the incumbent All Progressives Congress (APC).
On Twitter, Dele Momodu reacted by saying that Wike’s declaration will add vigor and excitement to the campaign.
“I’m happy to welcome my very dear friend and brother, Governor Nyesom Wike into the presidential race. His declaration will certainly bring some robustness and excitement to the race that has largely thrown up four Northern aspirants and two Southern aspirants who have bought their forms.
“With Wike in the race, we now have former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar (Adamawa, North East), Governor Bala Mohammed (Bauchi, North East), Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal (Sokoto, North West).
“Former Governor/Senate President, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki (Kwara, North Central), Former Senate President/Secretary to Federal Government, Ayim Pius Ayim (Ebonyi, South East), Publisher/Journalist Chief Dele Momodu (Edo, South-South and Osun, South West).
“Former Governor, Mr Peter Obi (Anambra, South East) was also reported to have joined the race but not sure he’s bought the form yet. Interesting weeks ahead,” he said.
