His comments come amid the strained relationship between himself and Fubara, his governorship predecessor.
Speaking in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme, he accused Fubara of lying against him.
He further claimed to have been the mastermind behind Fubara’s current position at the helms of affairs in the oil-rich state.
“I will never support Fubara in my political life again. Anybody knows me, it’s not about me. People laboured to put up a structure.
“People laboured, you wouldn’t have even taken the 50th position. I sacrificed to talk to the Ogonis, I sacrificed to talk to several other people who let us go this way.
“You turned it that I am asking for N50 billion, N100 billion. You turned up lies against me, I brought you up, put you here. Today, I turned to be over-demanding,” Wike lamented.
Speaking on the significance of maintaining a solid political structure in the state, Wike noted that “in every political family, you run election under people and people believe that we are all together. We must have to keep our political structure.
“There is nobody that has ever said that you will kill your… You rose through somewhere, why do you deny it? It’s unfair and you want me to sit down.”
He added, “We are all humans, ingratitude is bad, it doesn’t matter what anybody can label it.”
The relationship between both politicians has turned sour within the state, as the duo have different factions of lawmakers in the State House of Assembly.
