“My name is Hon Augustina Anosike Ojide. I am a farmer, transporter and politician. I am currently a member of PDP under which I had contested to represent my people at both the House of Assembly and Reps. Despite failing in my quest, I still remain a loyal PDP member. But that is not what I am here to talk about.
“I get worried whenever Nyesom Wike is in the news and some people are criticising him for whatever he has done or not done. Please forgive Wike or leave him alone because he has always been a dramatic person who has always acted from his childhood days. I have known Nyesom Wike since we were in primary school.

“Nyesom Wike was a member of our school’s marching band and was so popular in our school that everyone knew him. He led the band every morning during march past, flinging the Major which he so mastered how to use. Nigerians who criticise Wike for his many controversies should please let Wike be. It is his gift from God to dramatise everything and to go for what he wants.
“They should please forgive Wike because it has always been his character to be dramatic. What would you expect from someone who would readily fling his school bag away and dance in the marketplace as a child?
