Breaking: Wike bows to pressure, releases 22 Exxonmobil staff
ON APRIL 19, 202012:08 By Victor Young Following the directive of Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, PENGASSAN, to its members to shut down operations and all activities at the nation’s oil rigs and export terminals over the continued detention of 21 offshore members by the Rivers State, Wike Sunday bowed to pressure and released the detainees. Recall that Wike had on Thursday arrested the staff over alleged violation of the State Executive Order restricting movement across the state. He had vowed to deal with them, noting that he had prepared for legal battle against Exxonmobil. Wike also said that he was not afraid of anybody including those in Abuja, saying that he does not receive orders from them. READ ALSO: No excuse for not securing lives of Rivers people, says Wike He reiterated his commitment towards building, developing, securing and protecting the lives and properties of Rivers people. However, Wike on Sunday made a U-turn, and released the detainees. A statement from Simeon Nwakaudu, Special Assistant to Rivers State Governor, Electronic Media, quoted Rivers states Attorney General as saying, “They were released following interventions by well-meaning Nigerians.” Adangor is said to have monitored release of the oil workers at the State Isolation Centre at the Yakubu Gowon Stadium in Port Harcourt, stressing that Rivers Government remains resolute on implementing her measures to check the spread of coronavirus.

Who born monkey?

Just a phone call from the Attorney General of the Federation reminding the stubborn goat Nyezom Wine of who controls the Police, Army, DSS and the Prisons and how past stubborn governors were removed by Olusegun Obasanjo, Wine shivers and crawled back into his wife's pussy.

Big men don't shout.

He was just being silly. So did he test them to know their status before releasing them? No. He was just using them as a bait to get the FG's attention. He should have allowed oil workers to strike so the economy including that of his state to suffer

The new commissioner of police was going to release them anyway without wike's permission. He will no longer be allowed to behave with impunity henceforth.

Conversation between Buhari and Wike be like..:-


Buhari: Wike, how are you?

Wike: I'm good my president. How's everything?

Buhari: Inshallah, I yum ghood..

Wike: Good to know, My president.

Buhari: I gave you an instruction to release them and you went on media to talk nonsense... Who is your mate??

Wike: I am very sorry my president.

Buhari: I'm not in a good mood right now... I will not say it again, if you do not release them, I will make sure all your atrocities will be exposed and I will ensure that you are impeached and your deputy will take over power while I will have your grave digger next to Abba Kyari's shallow grave!!

Wike: I will release them today sir....

Buhari: Good boy!!
