Reactions as Whiskey Of Over N5 Million was Spotted on Wike and Fayose’s Table

Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers State, and Ayo Fayose, the former governor of Ekiti State, have drawn conflicting responses online due to the price of whiskey shown on their table.

According to Rotimi Amaechi, the immediate-past minister of transportation, Wike allegedly spends N50 million each week on alcohol using public funds.

The outgoing governor of Rivers characterized his successor as a drunk who shouldn’t be permitted to frivolously spend state money.

Amaechi claimed that the amount of money Wike spends on alcohol over the course of two weeks is virtually equal to what he spent as governor to construct one primary school.

Wike and Fayose were seen drinking a drink worth about five million Naira in the photo that went viral.

While some castigated them for the frivolous drink, others claimed they could afford it given their financial situation.

We all laughed and called him a stingy man for being judicious with public funds. Now see what Wike is consuming”
