So, Atiku Abubakar congratulated Gov. Wike on his appointment as Edo State PDP campaign committee chairman. It appears the governor wasn’t really impressed with the message so he simply told him “Thanks” in a non patronizing way.

See the reactions of Nigerians.

Fellow Nairalanders, how do you see Gov. Wike’s rrsponse to Atiku?

Kpos

From the look of things Wike has no regard for Atiku






Saying only "thanks" is an insult of the highest order

I am not Sure Governor Wike And Oshiomole are actually on Twitter.

Those handles seem FAKE.

Seen
Like iyatrustee rightly said Gov. Wike is not Atiku 's person so there's no big deal here

It is an open secret that Wike is not an Atiku man so, i am not surprised. But, whoever is handling his twitter account for even pretend small na, haba!

Saying "Thanks" without adding your excellency to the winner of the 2019 inec server presidential election is disrespectful

Wike as the Gov of a Rich state like Rivers is politically more relevant than a former vice president of the federation, forget Rivers, Ganduje is politically more relevant than Namadi Sambo, the fact that Atiku doesn't want to step back from politics doesn't mean he is a God. A simple thanks from the Gov isn't bad, he should be happy he didn't get emoji as reply.

All those alika quoting me, shebi u know Wike wasn't disrespectful, sometimes saying a simple thank you is enough, not everyone like writing lengthy words.
If I graduate from university and my father sent a lengthy congratulatory message to me, saying a simple thanks doesn't mean I do not appreciate. No be everybody like to full paper writing vote of thanks

don't see anything wrong in saying thanks.

no b everything be eye service.

Why

It is not a fake handle. That is his official twitter handle. He has been issuing official press statements through that handle.

Yes my thought too

The congratulatory message is uncalled for in the first place

How is this news....

How do u guys wanted him to say it.....
I kind literally smell the shit in ur lips as u are licking ass

Wike, he like money but at times, you can't impress him with money.

Both op and all the people way retwitte about that thanks are BUSY BODY.

Gov. Wike will never like Atiku for what they did to his preferred Presidential candidate during the last primary election.

I don’t think it is about money. Wike doesn’t like Atiku and he can’t even hide it. Atiku was simply trying to patronize him with the unnecessary congratulatory message and he wasn’t buying the bullshit.
