There's no smoke without fire, you can't convince me that they kept accusing only you wrongly Everytime without sparking activities. You have told us one-sided story giving the impression that you're a saint. Even without being told, based on the murder and genocide records in your administration one needs no further explanation to tell what you may have done in the past. Wike is the commander in chief of all deadly cult groups in Rivers state today, that's why you see many agberos and flimsy taskforce groups upandan in Port Harcourt committing all manner of criminal activities without challenge despite people's outcry to Wike, he remains adamant, because they're his boys, he used the public safety to settle them, that's why you rarely hear about cult clashes in Rivers state, wait until Wike's tenure finishes. Wike got into politics because of his gangsterism which other politicians used him to achieve their political goal. Wike is a murderer forget.
