Governor of Rivers State, Chief Nyesom Wike, has described the nullification of his election by the Election Petition Tribunal as a gang up against him and the people of the state arguing that the judiciary was setting a dangerous precedent in the country with the way it had gone about elections in the oil-rich state.
The Tribunal on Saturday nullified Wike’s election as governor and ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to conduct fresh rerun elections in the state within 90 days.
