Reuben Abati, veteran journalist, has come hard on Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike, following a somewhat derogatory comment made against his person by the state governor.
Governor Wike, last week Friday spoke to newsmen at the Port Harcourt International Airport where he described the current interview conducted by Abati and Tundun Abiola with Atiku as one filled with lies.
Wike further berated Abati and said he wondered why media practitioners no longer engage in investigative journalism. According to him, he listens to and reads some of the things Abati says and writes and he begins to wonder where Nigeria is heading.
Abati, took out time while on the show this morning on Arise TV to reply the governor. He said he doesn’t know where Governor Wike was when he started the profession many years ago and that the Governor does not have the capacity and intellect to teach him journalism. Watch the video
