Buhari Not A Noisemaker, Pays Niger Delta Monies PDP Couldn’t Pay –Wike

Posted on November 20, 2022

Mr. Nyesom Wike, Rivers State Governor on Saturday said President Muhammadu Buhari is not a noisemaker who will not promise what he won’t do.

Wike made the confession during his speech at the opening ceremony of the law school in Port Harcourt.

He revealed that what PDP past Presidents did not do for the Niger-Delta States, President Buhari did it.

He said the President cleared the backlog of 13 percent derivative funds accruing to States in the region.

“Buhari is not a noisemaker. He can’t say what he cannot do. The money I’m using all these years came from him,” Wike told thousands of supporters at the rally.

He continued; “Since 1999, PDP couldn’t pay all the states in the Niger Delta the money that supposed to go to them by right as NDDC states which was signed and sealed officially. Almost all the states in the Niger Delta are opposition states to the president’s party but he gave us what’s due to us.

“Former PDP presidents couldn’t pay their fellow PDP States what’s due for them. Nothing stopped Buhari of APC to order “don’t pay them’. He has all the right to do that but he acted the good father of the nation he is always known for.

“The money I used in doing over 13 flyover bridges and roads in Rivers State in tune of hundreds of billions of Naira and which all other NDDC state governors collected their own didn’t come from FAAC but from the 13% derivation paid to us by President Muhammadu Buhari which was not given to us by former PDP presidents. Stop talking against him, Buhari is a good man”.
