He stated that no evidence was presented at the tribunal to support claims that the Labour Party won the state. Wike, a member of the G5, explained that the strategy aimed to deny former Vice President Atiku Abubakar votes in the South-South region, as Atiku was considered the major threat. He also disclosed that a new political strategy is in place for the 2027 general elections.
