Mr. Olukayode Ariwoola ,The Chief Justice of Nigeria, says he is happy that his state governor, Seyi Makinde is one of the five governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that refuse to support the presidential ambition of the party’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar. The chief justice further commended Wike for his outrageous support to the judiciary since he assumed that office in 2015. The 5 G Governors are, Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Samuel
Ortom (Benue), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu). The governors, who now refer to themselves integrity governors demanded the resignation of the National Chairman of the party as one of the conditions to support Atiku. The crisis got worsened when the opposition party as the 5 governors carried out their activities in line with the PDP. However, Ariwoola is pleased with the fact that Makinde is among the five governors. Speaking during a banquet held in his honour by the Rivers State Governor Wike, in Port Harcourt, Thursday, 24, 2022, also urged Makinde to replicate Wike’s good works in Oyo state. The CJN said, “That is why we should not be scared to have these men of the integrity group.
“And I am happy that my own governor is among them because he would try to imitate his friend and in-law because we came here to marry for my governor. “So, Governor Wike will always threaten that he will call back his sister if my governor fails to play ball. That is why you see him following his Excellency (Wike) because my governor is afraid of his wife being recalled.” The Chief justice of Nigeria commended Gov.Wike for his support , care and love to the judiciary since his assumption of office in 2015.
