Chiyere Igwe apologize to Rivers people for supporting Wike to be governor

details later.......



Chinyere Igwe, a member of House of Representatives has apologised to Rivers people for supporting Nyesom Wike to become the governor of Rivers State.
Igwe, who is representing Port Harcourt Constituency was also ex-Commissioner for Urban Development in Rivers State.

Speaking during an interview with Atlantic Network Television few days ago, Igwe noted that Wike has not encouraged businesses in the state since he became Governor, adding that a lot of businesses have shutdown.
“I apologise to Rivers people for supporting Governor Nyesom Wike to be governor of Rivers State,” he said.
“Since Nyesom Wike became governor, he has not established or encouraged any business. If you go to Trans-Amadi, the industrial hub of Rivers State, all businesses are dead,” he added.
Wike had on Saturday directed the security agencies to arrest Chinyere Igwe, who is also the owner of the sealed Mega Tools Petrol station in Diobu Port Harcourt for alleged involvement in illegal oil bunkering .

Mega Tools Petrol station was among the business premises sealed and confiscated three days ago on the orders of Governor Nyesom Wike.
Ordering his arrest, governor said State government will ensure the prosecution of the owner of the filling station to demonstrate the resolve to reduce illegal oil bunkering activities in the State to the barest minimum.
Wike,spoke during the flag-off of the construction of internal roads in Omagwa, which was performed by former governor of Plateau State, Senator Jonah Jang on Saturday.

The battle line is drawn..
Wike will be fighting both at home and away and I don't see him coming out victorious.
He is fighting like a mortally wounded animal, trying to scratch and bite anything He sees.

If you see Chinyere Igwe tell him he is the height of ungratefulness and betrayal. All of them wanted Wike to make them his successor at the detriment of peace in Rivers State. Chinyere Igwe is an ally of Austin Opara who had positioned himself to succeed Wike. Austin Opara is a fellow Ikwerre man how on earth he thought that Wike would hand over to him befuddles all reasoning.
The same with Lee Maeba and Celestine Omehia. Lee Maeba positioned himself which to me was rightly so. But Wike preferred Sim which I hear though not confirmed is related to him but from another ethnic group.
Celestine Omehia was a a former governor but was not recognised as so especially by Amaechi when he was the governor. Wike came in, felt remorse for the role he played in removing Omehia and decided to bring him in. He recognised him as a former governor and made sure all dues due him as a former governor were paid. Omehia had thought Wike would reinstate him by making him the PDP gubernatorial flag bearer. This would have caused tension and unnecessary bickering in the state. These are the disgruntled politicians Atiku believes he could use to win Rivers State. Meanwhile these people stand to benefit more if they support Wike and bargained for a higher stake with Atiku.
Of all of them, Omehia is the biggest loser. He would have been taking his allowances so far as PDP remains in power in Rivers State.

Everybody in Rivers PDP will dump Wike, he has less than 8 months to handover.
His mad man dictatorial actions will be his downfall
He has been shutting down pro Atiku loyalists businesses and hotels in Rivers State since last week under the false claims of illegal gatherings
PDP will continue existing after Wike leaves.

What are you writing story land?

Did Chief Austin Okpara, Chief Celestine Omehia, and co. not attend the Primaries? Did they not accept Wike's decision to push Sim Fubara? Have they ever complained one day?

This is the Presidential election and these men want to support Atiku. That is the problem. Wike has not recovered from losing the election and is bitter against Atiku. That is his own problem. It has nothing to do with men that been allies to Atiku since the 90s.

This has nothing to do with their gubernatorial ambition. Stop changing stories and supporting bad.

Wike is very wrong here for lying and putting false allegations on people due to their political inclination.

Atiku has hijacked Wike's political machinery. Wike is just crying like a wonder pussy cat.

His tenure is over. The table is turning.

My advice to Donald Duke is to dump Wike. Rivers people are just covering Wike. He is a failure as a governor.

Failed in promoting businesses. Failed in Agriculture. Failed in Security. Failed in Education. Failed in employment. Failed in Healthcare.

Nothing to show except irrelevant flyovers of no economic value.

Most of those Pro Wike Governors and politicians from other states like Makinde, Ortom, Ikpeazu, Donald Duke, Mimiko and others are already disgruntled by Wike actions, insults to party members, threats and outbursts so far in the past few weeks, they will not sacrifice their political career with PDP for Wike who no longer becomes a Governor in 8 months from now.
They will place PDP first over Wike when campaign starts.
Some of them are insiders for Atiku, just claiming to be pro Wike, people like Ikpeazu.
They will all dump him in matter of weeks same way some other PDP Governors dumped Wike in the PDP Presidential Primary.

Wike believed in these men as his allies. He is being vociferous because he thought he had the backings of these men. Wike is not againat supporting Atiku but such support must have the interest of Rivers' people of course his interest at the centre. Atiku would not come to negotiation table if these men do not form a unit. It is quite unfortunate how these grown up men fell for the divide and rule tactics of Atiku and the North.

At the bolded.. Is Wike not from the same tribe with Amaechi when he was using the federal might to get into power? Wike choose Siminayi Fubara because he has been his partner in financial crime just to cover his tracks... They are all fighting for their selfish gains..

Did Wike have the interest of Rivers people in mind when he is busy buying and taking people's lands and properties, closing down business and in 7 years no employment into the civil service, no promotion?
Only job created was for his political thugs Task Force who have turn to another pain every Rivers residents neck..
Let us be realistic here Wike is so egocentric.
