Political Crisis Unfolds in Rivers As LG Chairman Criticizes Governor Fubara

Rivers State is witnessing a potential political crisis as Governor Siminalayi Fubara faces sharp criticism from Samuel Nwanosike, the Chairman of Ikwerre Local Government Area.

In a widely circulated video on his official X handle, the council chairman addressed his supporters at Omerelu Community, making accusations against Fubara.

Recall that Fubara and his predecessor, currently the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, had a fallout in 2023 over a battle of supremacy in the state.

The LG Chairman, expressing loyalty to Wike, asserted that Governor Fubara, who assumed leadership from Wike on May 29, 2023, had not made any significant achievements in the state

He said, “Any day the likes of Chijioke sent by Fubara insults Wike, I’ll insult Fubara, so today, Fubara is a foolish Governor, he’s not a ‘mumu’ Governor but a foolish Governor because since he took officeonn May 29th, he has done nothing for Rivers people.

Nwanosike further maintained that the allegation that Wike wanted to pocket Rivers State is far from the truth, saying Fubara “is very naive and doesn’t know what governance is all about. If he knows what governance is all about, by now, he would have been visiting Rivers State by the local government

“Go and look at Igirita roundabout by Igirita market by Eleka Road; deathtrap, can’t move. Kidnapping everywhere in Rivers State and you say you’re a Governor”.

Kanyi Daily recalls that the Supreme Court on Monday dismissed the appeal made by the Allied People’s Movement challenging the victory of Siminalayi Fubara
