Effort in futility.

Even if you close all their offices, it doesn't stop them from flying to and fro Rivers State.

In a world where transactions are now completed online, who walks into the office.

I don't even know the office of any airline in the entire world.

Caverton is foolish for trying to fight the state government.

The state government owns all the land within its boundary and any
business that wants to succeed must obey state rules and regulations.

All Caverton management should have done is submit the manifest of its passengers for
proper testing and quarantine but they refused because they feel too big.
Caverton is NOT a licensed medical outfit, neither is it the Ministry of Health. It is NOT their job to provide details of the health status of their passengers.

The only thing Wike should have done, was to order that the pilots and the passengers should be tested on arrival. And the state government has NO powers to dictate who can fly over its airspace.

Aviation, airports and the national airspace as well as airline passenger issues, are all on the exclusive legislative list, which is solely the federal government's jurisdiction.

So what kind of grammar is Wike speaking? He should take legal advice from his wife, please!!

same immunity was there when ngige was kidnapped as a governor and his security details removed. Buhari can deal with Wike in so many ways. How about claiming that for grounding caverton,he stopped movements of critical staff and thereby hampered the workings of the oil and gas industry. And he claims that Port Harcourt will pay for the losses and put a stop on their allocation. The federal government is all powerful in Nigeria

And it will remain so cos of people like you.

Nobody asked them for their health status.
There is a lockdown in place and they ought to ask for permission before landing any passenger.

Exclusive legislative list is not what you think it means.

You cannot have your private business in a state and disregard the governor of said state simply cos you got some numbers to call at Abuja!
If Abuja needs to carry out certain operation in any state at such critical time,it's normal for them to be in contact with the state govt.

Abuja/Buhari should stop intimidating Nigerians and people like you should quit slave mentality.

Can any company operating in say Lagos,dare Sanwo Olu just cos they have Abuja connection?
you guys are funny. These people were licensed to operate in Nigeria by the federal government. They are not just backed by the federal government but also the constitution. They pay taxes to the federal government and Rivers State collects hers too which makes Rivers a partner. They can sue Rivers State and collect billions in damages. They are provisioned to operate in a time like this. Air Peace have been flying and landing in Lagos and never had sanwo tried to meddle. You might say Air Peace brings critical materials for the fight against the pandemic but those things won't pay for themselves. Caverton services is needed to ensure that we generate the funds

Wike is the Governor and Chief Security Officer of Rivers State and so can, should and has done the right thing to protect his territory.

What exactly was the mission of the helicopter and who were the passengers?

Their Sinister , unknown mission is highly suspicious.

Why does Lagos State government have right to arrest and prosecute Funke Akindele etc for breaking the Lockdown Regulations and Rivers State government can't arrest and prosecute people for same offences?

SMH undecided

What business is more important than the health of Rivers State people at this particular point in time?
Wike has done well and we are in support of it.

Everybody stay in your state till all of this is over ,it's not that hard!!!!.
You guys are very funny. cheesy Party goers is what you are comparing to flying a helicopter through our airspace? Chai!! shocked

Please Wike has no powers over the airspace. He cannot ground any aircraft as the constitution of Nigeria, does NOT give him the power to do so!

oyeb15:
Federal Government have sole authority over airspace. States have no right whatsoever. Does wike seek approval from Sanwo olu anytime he flies Rivers State Jet and Chopper to Lagos?
Wike can't try that with Olusegun Okikiola Obasanjo as president.
This lockdown if not quickly stopped by FG, some oil rich states will gang up and declare independence. It will break Nigeria.
Please make them understand this simple fact.

This is a proof that you lack knowledge. If the helicopter company is critical to the point of crippling operations of oil from let the oil major declare a force majeur on that basis so the entire world we know that our oil industry depends on a monopoly for air logistic.

I just dey laugh oh. Rivers State is a PDP state and the federal government respected that. Wike was shakes during the election because APC are playing the long game. The last election was to soften the ground and make new enemies for PDP so that APC takeover will become simpler with less blood. You folks are just too funny.

They should and never fly into Rivers State.... As a lay man as you are you failed to put necessary thinking before that assertion.
1) how will they survive operations with stiff competition from Bristol, Aero etc
2) will passengers travel to imo state to board Caveaton
3) will they still charge same amount to their clients because of longer routes to cover knowing fully well that recurrent expenditure will double
These issues and many more will make Caveaton go bankrupt if the relocate their operations from rivers state, knowing fully when more than 50percent of their operations comes from rivers....
I understand your point.

He just trying to sell his state doesn't account to any hard feelings.

Helicopter services would be very successful for a state like rivers.

Most of the oil facilities are not accessible by roads. Most roads its better u use a helicopter, cause as an expatriate the cost of moving around with heavy security is almost same price.

But wikes words were extreme

this is law. There are twist and turns. I can claim that I walk with my hands and if I can prove it, I will win. That doesn't mean that I walk with my hands. The federal government can claim whatever it wants because of Wike actions and whatever you say on nairaland won't change a thing.


When the court ordered for the release of dasuki, the federal government claimed national security and that was where it ended until they decided to let him go

Its easier to declare state of emergency in the state than stop its allocation.

Oil companies especially those remitting to the FG would SUFFER

The Airforce commander alerted the Governor on the Helicopter arrival which the governor and the police commissioner swift into action

Airforce commander and CP are federal government staff . Why do you think the need the Governor? The answer is simple ; the dreaded Covid 19 doesn't respect you grandfather. Therefore your refusal to protect each other will activate it spread. The Airforce commander and the CP too need to save their lives too by working in synergy with the governor to protect the people and themselves

I am sick and tired of hearing exclusive list this, exclusive list that.
First of all, Wike is the CSOand number 1 person of rivers state and having placed restrictions on flights within his jurisdiction, the so called federal powers ought to have pre-informed the Rivers state government of the inbound chopper and not undermine the authority of the state governor.
Are you aware that all lands in Rivers state belongs to the Rivers state government and not the Federal government which brings me to the Latin phrase " Quicquid plantatur solo, solo cedit "

Even though i like Wike's actions so far and how seriously he has taken this corona issue,

He shouldn't make the mistake of tussling with the FG.

I believe that they just do not have his time yet.

What/Who is Wike without the CP and the Army GOC?

All the FG needs to do is change the Police Commisioner and the Commander of Bori Camp and Wike is mince meat.

Obj for don do that one already.

Someone needs to advise Wike but I hope it doesn't get to that.

I love every action he has taken so far wrt covid 19.

Until we realize that the constitution gave some people an unlimited amount of power,we will keep electing stupid people into the legislative arm of the government. First and important way to change a situation is to understand that it's a problem. Right now, most of you are being sentimental and forming Badoo on the internet forgetting that our laws were made by the military and it gave the powers to the government in the center and not to the people. Stop living in fools paradise and wake up to reality. Our law made it possible for a certain Tanko who's an Islamic judge to become the supreme Court judge of a secular state like Nigeria

Mr. They brought out their entire armoury against the man killed Riverians and yet they stood their ground.

Amaechi led the federal troop...was Kwara not a confirm PDP state with a senate president and sitting governor?


As long as it is politicos, leave am for the man wey sabi... Wike pass dem... We are not discussing boko haram kind of situation... Rivers doesn't have their own army and not empowered by law to have any army or police and cannot therefore confront the federal government, militarily.

If the law gave them the power and they had, they did they will over run the federal government... They have the youths, the waters and grooves and creeks to their advantages

Boko has been running on plan land in the forest up north for years and beating the army to it every year
