NDUKA Obiagbena, publisher of ThisDay, alongside Aminu Tambuwal, Governor of Sokoto state, have sang a song mocking Nyesom Wike, Governor of River state in a viral video.

Obiagbena, in a euphoric atmosphere while entertaining his guests, after the burial of his mother at the weekend, sang and hailed Tambuwal while deriding Wike saying “Wike lule” meaning Governor Wike fall flat in Yoruba language. 

This was to the amusement of Tambuwal and others present who honoured Obiagbena’s invitation to the burial of late Margaret Obaigbena, the mother of Nduka Obiagbena, aged 88

In his song, Obiagbena referred to Tambuwal as “future president”.

Thus, Obiagbena implied Tambuwal was the cause of Wike’s failure in the PDP presidential primaries election held on May 28.

Realnews reports that Tambuwal, a friend of Wike, contributed to Wike’s loss when he withdrew for Atiku Abubakar during the presidential primary election of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
