2023: ‘You’ll Be A Good Loser’ – Ganduje Mocks Wike Over Presidential Ambition [Video]

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has mocked his River State counterpart, Nyesom Wike over his intention to become the next President in 2023.

Ganduje, who received Wike at the Government House in Kano on Monday, stated that the Rivers governor will lose the 2023 presidency and will be a good loser at that.

The Kano governor while speaking amidst laughter, commended Wike for having the courage to join the 2023 presidential race.

He said: “So, you have come to see your brothers and sisters. Good. You are aspiring for the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We see your efforts. And at the end of it, you’d lose, but you’ll be a good loser.

“I appreciate good losers because they have courage. And since you are doing it peacefully, you’ll live long to fight again. I congratulate you, Mr ‘Wise’ Wike. Thank you and God bless.”

Reacting, Wike said he is pleased the Kano Governor is not running for the office of president of Nigeria, urging him to support his ambition in respect of 2023.

“If Ganduje is running for the presidency some of us will quickly withdraw our ambitions but thank God he is not running and I’m sure he will help me to make it,” he said.

Earlier, Wike had met with delegates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kano State, as part of his ongoing consultation ahead of the party’s presidential primary.

The governor told the delegates that it was time for Nigerians to brace up to correct what he termed the mistake that brought the All Progressives Congress (APC) government to power.

He said he was offering himself as the most competent aspirant seeking their votes at the presidential primaries to fly the flag of the PDP.

Governor Wike insisted that it would require a man like him to end the sight of insecurity and poverty bedevilling various parts of the country.
