The Convener, Network for the Defence of Democracy and Good Governance (NDDGG), Sobomabo Jackrich, has faulted the N500 million donation to Sokoto State government by the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, describing it as reckless, selfish and politically motivated.
Jackrich in a statement, issued on Monday to DAILY POST said they were worried about the way Wike was wasting the resources of the state without addressing the real challenges facing Rivers.
He said while NDDGG sympathised with victims of the fire incident that occurred at the Sokoto Central Market, there was no justification for Wike to embark on such an unaccounted obligation, abandoning all the problems of Rivers.
