Coronavirus: We can’t accept expired rice, hunger won’t kill us – Wike tells Nigerian government
Wike also said his concern about the neglect of Rivers State in the COVID-19 fight by the Federal Government was always misconstrued for confrontation.
He also stated that the disbursement of palliatives to states to curb the spread of the novel Coronavirus was selective and laced with bias. “What happened in Kano again tells you the inconsistencies and the kind of role the federal government plays. It is really unfortunate. “That is what happens. Is it that Rivers state is not part of Nigeria? There are those that are bigger than the country. There are also those they don’t see as part of Nigeria.
