The immediate past governor of Rivers State, Chief Barr Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has advised his successor to be wary of political sycophants whose only goal is to advance their own personal interests.
Delivering his goodwill message at a thanksgiving Service, the former governor noted that some politicians are very dangerous and so must not be drawn close in matters of governance.
