Wike takes charge of burial of Patience Jonathan’s mom

There are clear indications that the Rivers State Government would not have any input in the burial of Mother Charity Onyekwululachiya Fyneface Oba (Mama Sisi), step mother of Dame Patience Jonathan, wife of Nigeria’s president.

The Supervising Minister for Education, Mr Ezebunwo Nyesom Wike, and Governor Rotimi Amaechi’s political foe, has taken charge and has constituted five Committees from the Felix Obuah led Peoples Democratic Party,PDP.

In a statement made available to P.M.NEWS, Felix Obuah the factional Chairman of PDP will chair the mobilization committee, among the five Committees for the burial.

Other committees are Transport, Medical, Accommodation, and Publicity.

Inaugurating the Committees, Wike charged members to ensure the Mother of the First Lady is given a well deserved and successful burial

He also used the occasion to give assurance that the people of Rivers State will participate fully in the planned burial.

Emma Okah, the former Chief Press Secretary, CPS, to former Governor Peter Odili and later Commissioner for Information under the short-lived Celestine Omehia administration chairs the publicity committee.

Jerry Needam, Special Media Adviser to Obuah is Secretary, while Chief Emeh Glory Emeh, former Commissioner for Transport and Chief of Staff to Omehia is a member.

The burial is expected to kick off from 1 November and ceremonies take place in Port Harcourt and Okrika.

Three days ago, Governor Amaechi had gone to the headquarters of National Human Rights Commission, NHRC, to throw light on the petition he wrote against the Commissioner of Police, Mbu Joseph Mbu on infringement on his rights as an elected Governor and that of Rivers people on their rights to free assembly.

Ameachi had told the press thereafter that Mbu takes directives from Mrs. Jonathan, not the Inspector General of Police.

If dis news is anythng 2 go by, just imagine if in d nearest future dis minister is found 2 have done anythng illegal (or maybe purchased some armoured vehicles at inflated prices) what do u think would happen 2 him?
Rmember he has already sown a seed by funding d funeral of d firstlady's late mumand therefore would enjoy immunity for life no matter wat happens in d future so far GEJ remains d president. Major reason y we have d untouchables in govt

Jobless people.
That is your minister of education.

Ok

MINISTER OF NIGERIAS EDUCATION MINISTRY!

Nigeria University students are in deep trouble.....this man job as Minister is secondary....his main job is serving as Man-Friday to GEJ and doing some dirty jobs for Madam Unblerra.

Is this the reason why Wike said the ASUU strike will end in some months time? Now I understand.

Nigeria politics and misplacement of priorities.

I can remember vividly when tinubu celebrated his 60th birthday, all the southwest governors were incharge of that birthday. All A.C.N governors contributed 1billion naira each, senators 500 million, house of rep 300 million, house of assembly 100million, local government chairmen 50million and councillors 5million.
Jagaban of lagos was giving a beffitting birthday by his A.C.N godsons. Na wa for naija politics oooo, were ruling party will be messing up, opposition party will also be messing up.
Naija is finished.

Yes, Wike has to take over the burial because impatience Jonathan is Wike's "Jesus-on-Earth" while the dead woman was the "Mary-on-Earth" now transformed to "Mary-in-Hell". Secondly the universities which the man is supposed to be ministering among other institutions are on strike, what will the man do nahh? An idle hand is the devil's workshop, so, Wike has to get his hands busy. Thirdly, Amaechi has stopped fighting him (Wike), so he has to find something to do. Fourthly, the Rivers Assembly that Wike has been policing and causing trouble has been closed and taken over by National Assembly, so, to suppress boredom Wike has to find something to do.

So, before the universities are opened in "few months", let the man find something to keep body and soul together or apart.

In the whole Bayelsa - They dont have a health centre people resort to using herbs - No minister will take charge of that one.

but will rather continue as houseboy and housegirl for Mr and Mrs President

Nigeria is a waste

Usel-ess set of entities

Committees for burial?!!

Hmmm, committee for evrytyn in naija! Evn burial of a woman that was not relevant in Nigerian politics.

Haters leave with it;

Truth be told, we dnt have a country.

That is an additional portfolio... Supervisory Minister for Presidential funerals... No wonder the guy said ASSU strike would be over in few months time... The priority now is Mama's burial... Students please exercise patience with us, in line with Mr, President's transformation agenda everything gonna be well soon...
