Chief Dele Momodu, a veteran journalist, has pleaded with Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike to “kill his anger” towards the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Momodu advised Wike to use the breaks before his rage spirals out of control and becomes too late.
He emphasized that the PDP has served as Wike’s stable platform and urged the governor to control his resentment towards it.
The former PDP presidential candidate made the appeal in light of Wike’s complaints about the party’s nominee, Atiku Abubakar.
Following the PDP presidential primary election, Governor Wike and Atiku fell apart.
The general belief is that Wike is upset with Atiku for choosing Delta Staye Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate.
However, Momodu, in a Facebook post, titled: “My Kobo advice to Governor Nyesom Wike,” wrote: “You’re certainly one of Nigeria’s best-performing Governors, if not the best. Personally, I’m very proud of your uncommon achievements. I know you are very angry. It is your right to be.
“But I’m begging you in the name of God not to take decisions based on anger. Nigeria has been very kind to you. Rivers State has been extremely generous to you.
“GOD has blessed you beyond imagination. You have such a beautiful family. Your people love you stupendously for the services delivered to them. PDP has been your solid platform.
“You should never destroy a bridge after crossing the river. Even if you no longer need the bridge, what of your friends and family?
“I pray you kill this excessive and perpetual ANGER. It is getting out of hand. Most people around you will keep quiet for fear of losing patronage. Many politicians survive only on power. My Brother, I love you. But someone must be able to tell you the truth. No General fights on too many fronts. Please, apply the brakes, before it is too late – DELE MOMODU.”
