The former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara has described Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike as one of the indispensable political leaders in the country.
This is following a visit by the former speaker and the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal to Governor Wike at his country home in Rumueprikom, Obio-Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Speaking with newsmen after the meeting, Dogara said their visit is in the quest to build an all-inclusive Nigeria.
According to him, “Everyone agrees with us that Governor Wike is one of those indispensable political leaders. For us, it is a search to build an all-inclusive Nigeria.
So, we feel that as part of the agenda setting, we should meet with him and that is the reason why we are here. And for the rest, whatever it is, maybe in the future we can discuss that.”
Similarly, the former SGF Lawal, said their mission was a brotherly visit, noting that it has no connection with the meeting some northern leaders held in Abuja on Friday.
