FORMER Deputy Speaker of Rivers State House of Assembly, Mr Leyii Kwanee, has accused Governor Nyesom Wike of attempting to politicise the ongoing UNEP clean-up of Ogoniland, even as he challenged the governor to accede the 2019 governorship to the Ogoni if he really cared.

Reacting to Wike’s comment on the issue, Kwanee, in a press briefing, faulted Wike’s narrative, stating that the clean-up is a gradual process and the President Buhari administration should be lauded for kick-starting the activity and encouraged to do more, rather than being criticised.
Wike had claimed that the Federal Government is unserious with the cleanup of Ogoniland, when he met with members of the Senate Committee on Environment in Port Harcourt, recently.
Kwanee noted that Wike, who served as a member of former President Goodluck Jonathan’s cabinet, should have been able to push for the government to implement the clean-up if he had cared enough for Ogoni people and the effects of the pollution they had suffered for years.
He said: “I feel disappointed that Governor Wike would even bring up the issue of the UNEP exercise in Ogoniland, not to talk of criticising the APC government over the process. He had the opportunity of making it happen when he was a Minister under President Jonathan, but he didn’t move a limb.
