2027: Wike declares APC’s Kingsley Chinda next governor of Rivers State
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has declared that the All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship candidate in Rivers State, Honourable Kingsley Chinda, will emerge as the next governor of the state in 2027.
The former governor of Rivers State made the remark on Tuesday during a warm reception organised in his honour by Ogbakor Ikwerre, the socio-cultural organisation of the Ikwerre ethnic nationality, at Obiri-Ehie.
Acknowledging the presence of dignitaries at the event, Wike introduced Chinda as the “former Minority Leader in the House of Representatives and, by the grace of God, the next governor of Rivers State.”
If elected, Chinda, a member of the House of Representatives, will take over from Governor Siminalayi Fubara, who declined to run for a second term.
Chinda, a long-time political ally of Wike, has been widely regarded as the former governor’s preferred successor following the political realignments in the state.
