Nyesom Wike, the Governor of Rivers State, has been described as a man suffering from amnesia by former House of Reps Speaker, Yakubu Dogara.
Wike had refered to Dogara as an erratic individual who cannot keep to his position after the former Speaker declared support for the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Wike wondered why Dogara failed to stick to his alleged earlier position that the next president should come from the South.
But responding in a post on his Twitter handle, Dogara, who has now dumped the All Progressives Congress for the PDP said: “To my brother, Governor Nyesom Wike, if there is anything you are suffering from, I never thought amnesia would be one of them. Why would you think no one, except you, is entitled to a certain set of principles he/she cannot compromise? It’s such a pity if you cannot remember what our discussion and agreement was all about. Why should only your own position be respected and followed?
“I would never betray a friend and a brother that is why I won’t respond to your tirade on live TV. The details of our conversation is sealed up with me but if you feel it’s okay to throw it to the public, kindly give me a written consent to divulge it so that the public can judge who is saying the truth. Thank God there was a witness.”
