An old video clip that captured former governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, campaigning against the godfather syndrome is currently circulating on social media.

In the video, Wike, who is currently the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT was heard saying that the godfather syndrome affecting some states in Nigeria will not be allowed in Rivers.

He particularly opined that the system of godfatherism may happen in Lagos State but not Rivers.

“It may happen in Lagos State but it cannot happen in Rivers, we are quite different. As a governor, I will come and go and I can’t stop it.

“The day that my tenure ends, by the grace of God, I will go. When you are thinking that what is happening in Lagos State, we will do it here, it may be difficult.

“If godfatherism work in Lagos, it will be impossible for it to work in Rivers. The day I finish my tenor, I pack my things and go. Rivers people will chose their Governor”

Sycophants destroy Wike. Same way sycophants will destroy Tinubu. Just watch!!! pic.twitter.com/u0Vm5GRCck

“You can’t continue to say that you must be a godfather of a state. That is the problem and it is not possible”, he said.

Meanwhile, the state is currently facing one of the worst political crisis in the country following face-off between Wike and the incumbent Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.

The two political warriors are battling for the leadership structure of the state.
