Did he lockdown Rivers from Monday? Is there still movement within the state from Monday?

The state border was closed since two weeks ago... Right now rivers state does not have any confirmed case of the virus... The two patients were discharged

Other governors should come and learn how Wike contained the virus from spreading

Provide for your people first b4 fighting FG. Useless governor. Rivers state have the poorest people in Nigeria.

He's not useless... Rivers state has the highest numbers of foreign expatriates in the country, and this means that the state should have had the highest numbers of COVID-19 confirmed cases than Lagos, but the governor you just called useless took proactive measures to ensure the life of her people first before any other thing.... Right now there's no case in the state... Isn't that wonderful?

Then they should follow these basic HSE procedures as laid down by the same central govt.... The FG just forgot suddenly that there are steps that MUST be followed to ensure the safety of lives and properties- not to presume safety simply because they are oil workers. Even medical directors die of this deadly novel virus.

Several critics of the governor simply throw logic into the wind and start attacking the personality of the Chief Security Officer of the state. Noisemaker, attention seeker, political desperados etc, etc. It"s sad.

I suspect the FG knows the right thing to do. However, because the center wants to frustrate Wike, they would want to bend the rules just to provoke the governor. Everyone know the role of oil in the Nigerian monopolistic economy.



My cousin is locked up in a vessel at Bonny because the personnel from Lagoswho were supposed to relief them are being quarantined under the company's watch. This is the measures taken by the company.

The President's speech on lockdown covered these group of persons.

I'm of the opinion that, the best the Governor could have done was to quarantine them and maybe, they do community service and let them go. Afterwards, invite the management of the company.

Just get your hands on the charges the magistrate read out to them then you will understand that the governor is doing this with bad blood.

This is kind of response I expected from Sanwo-Olu when the president unilaterally shutdown lagos without recourse to the Governor.

For crying out loud we in a democracy and not under any autocratic rule.

The constitutional right of the various arms of government must be respected.

Thumbs up Wike, for fighting to sustain our democracy, the states are not appendages of the presidency.

The fact that PMB did not state it during the broadcast does not mean the governors of Lagos and Ogun where not in the know. Let's take Ogun for instance, the lock down in Ogun did not take effect on the date PMB announced because Dapo Abiodun had ask for a few more days for his people before commencing the lock down.

When you make an assertive statement like "Rivers state has the highest numbers of foreign expatriates in the country", then you need to back it up with proof. Lagos has always been the state expected to be the main hotspot in Nigeria followed by Abuja, then Ogun cos of its proximity to Lagos. The more relevant info actually is that Lagos is the busiest entry point into country and if you go to MMA, you will discover that Nigerians actually travel a lot. A governor that was ready to relax restrictions and put them in danger just to look good in the eyes of the same people is who you are hailing o

Exxon Mobil needs a country to work in so countries are bigger than ExxonMobil. A country can send away ExxonMobil or refuse to renew their countract. ExxonMobil will only pack and go. Remember during the military era an oil company was nationalised. A company far bigger than ExxonMobil

It's sad we politicize everything.

This has nothing to do with money.

Ask yourself questions.

Does Mobil operate in Rivers?

The state had locked down, why didn't FG call him to notify him.

Wike is the chief security officer of rivers state, go and read the constitution if you don't know.

He is speaking from a position of knowledge.

Ignorance is a disease.

How sure are you that FG was aware of the actions being taken by Exxonmobil? FG got involved after they workers were arrested. Winke just decided to drag FG into the whole thing as usual. It has become his MO.

It's a clear indication He listesn to His people... He felt t was good for Christians to celebrate Easter but said No... So as good leader He had to go with what they wanted.... Can You say dat for Your President.... Does He have You at heart

It is good to listen to your followers but the decision he took to begin with was ill advised. It was not the people he listened to cos a lot of people here were already planning to go church last week till the Religious bodies advised against it. His reversal of the restriction only came after that.

Here's a quotable quote for you in case you like them. A good leader will always do what's best for his people regardless of whether they applaud him for it or not.

"A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be."

I read thru d statements u made and I ask myself: Could this be a governor speaking or an unskilled councillor.

Sorry to say: Winke you are too local and highly educated-illiterate.

You are not diplomatic at all..and I don't think you understand d position u sat on. Governorship seat is a distinguished one...but I can see we have an advanced taut here... mtchewww..

You are shouting u are protecting ur people...u just seeking unnecessary pity.. unnecessary attention that doesn't speak well of a person in that position...

It's a good picture/indication that u don't deserve that position, "IN A SANE WORLD".

But, here in Naija anybody (even a goat) can become governor as long as he can criminally acquire fund and use to buy thugs with weapons and carry ballot papers..

That's why we see criminals in authority.

According to 2015 economic report by The Washington Post. If ExxonMobil were a country it would have been the 41st largest economy in the world, while Nigeria is 23rd.

No doubt, ExxonMobil is a big corporation.
