Reuben Abati, veteran journalist has blasted Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike over an alleged derogatory comment made against his person by the state governor.
Recall that Governor Wike on Friday addressed newsmen at the Port Harcourt International Airport where he described the recent interview conducted by Abati and Tundun Abiola with Atiku as one filled with lies.
Wike while speaking on the interview berated Abati and said he wondered why media practitioners no longer engage in investigative journalism.
According to him, he listens to and reads some of the things Abati says and writes and he begins to wonder where Nigeria is heading.
Abati took out time while on Arise TV to reply the governor. He said he doesn’t know where Governor Wike was when he started the profession many years ago and that the Governor does not have the capacity and intellect to teach him journalism.
