Jorussia:
I read elsewhere that is being positioned as chief of staff by the governor.
Wike won this fight against the governor immediately he got the president involved.
Fubara is weakened severely politically,by the implementation of the directives of PBAT.
Those who fought, where are they today? You people always talk like you own Nigeria. He has shown that he is not a kid to be pushed aside. And I read the deal...it is not bad. He used Wike to rise to become a governor and there is an agreement on the table. Wike may be a useless man like most politicians...Sim is also a double useless fella. However, when it comes to power tussle, he has got the president's attention. If I was him, I would lay low also. Just wait and see how that man will rise. Wike cannot just talk to him anyhow again. Not possible.

Tell me one person who went against these powerful politicians and won. Just one person. Even the president himself swallowed many nauseating stuff...even bowed to Orji's mom grin....but today...let Orji go to the villa and not almost knee for him...they will bundle her out. Even Buhari...let him say nonsense and see what will happen to him.

Oga, the road to becoming a top politician is humbling. Only someone like Jonathan can clomb easily...those who are really humble. This guy called Sim is also very humble. If it was another governor, mehn! I like him. He knows what he is doing. And more, you don't pray to have Wike as an enemy. Who has survived Wike? Go check. You guys just talk. Where is Amaechi today? Ameachi was his ex-boss ooo. Where is Atiku today? To fight Atiku na beans? Someone who destroyed Atiku is who you want to make an enemy. Lol.

As it is today....Bola Tinubu, Gandollar, Wike, and Atiku are the top politicians we have. ElRufai has seen that he is out...but he is trying to restrategize. He did not get that those after him wanted to kill his political career cos the next post for him was to become the president. He didn't get it...otherwise, he would have fought to be the power minister when they were embarrassing him cos he has the president's backing. But he was too proud....lol. I trust Tinubu....that man respects himself...and it is why Buhari himself cannot say anything bad about him. Even when his appointed son went against him, he said nothing cos he knew he didn't have the power to do much. But as soon as he is in charge, do you see him as someone who isn't in charge like Buhari? Not saying he is doing fine cos I don't like him that much...but he is certainly in control of his government.

Do you want him to go against the power that can force a "state of emergency" on him? You people hailed him when he destroyed the House of Assembly and that was what killed him....cos the president can invoke a "state of emergency". The president has called the attorney general to give him angles to use and invoke it. A state where over 90% of lawmakers are rendered homeless because the governor destroyed their home? Wike would just tell them to bring real violence. Sim started it....by the time they start burning and pulling down structures here and there...Sim is out. Tinubu will impose a state of emergency and appoint Wike's new anointed person as the governor and then rule for like 1 to 2 years before another election is conducted. You need to think ahead .... don't just talk.

Learn to stay humble.

Now what if the supreme Court judgement is coming hard against Sim?
What if the guy had seen it?
If d resignation is to pave way for him to become the chief of staff then good.
But like someone here said, the drama is gonna be way long and interesting.
If u fight Tinubu, Adams, Obasanjo Wike, ...I'm not sure u will succeed.

more to come from where? You all can keep hearing on wike but it's inconsequential cuz,he has made his political smart choice of supporting A presidential candidate he knows had the possibility of winning. You all think that wike would've attacked Atiku the way he did if he knows that Tinubu wouldn't win?you hate wike cuz of Obi who doesn't know if you exist or not. Same Obi who is now an errand boy to the most brutal president Nigeria ever had(OBJ) anyway, keep waiting for Fubara to strike.
Stop being silly...

I hate Wike not because of Obi.

I hate Wike because of what he did in the election between Obi's votes and Tinubu's votes.

Understand that and get that clear.

And again I repeat, all prominent politicians are loved by some and hated by some.
Wike is not an exception.

You all take him as your god and role model and so expect all and sundry to live him.
NO.!

No matter how much of a God you make him for yourself, some of us still see him as a very corrupt, incredible, deceitful politician and no doubt one of the problems of this country today.

You have your right to love him and kiss his ass,
And I reserve my right to loathe and disgust him.

You still believe this your infantile botherline reasoning. Was Ehie suspended after he became speaker or before?
Was Ehie suspended after the 27 defected to APC?
How many people voted Ehie to be the speaker?
How many members must be there to form quorum of the house?
Has the court heard the case instituted to declare the seats of the HOA Members vacant?
Would it not amount to taking the laws in their hand should they declare their seats vacant before the law does so?
Has it been established that there is no division at the national level of PDP?
Bros rest u are a neophyte in politics.
Wike has seized it all. In 2027 being in charge of PDP and APC he can simply stay in his parlour and share elective positions to those he desires.
Now he has shared the RVHA to APC while the Governor he shared to PDP. Don't be surprised Fubara may cross soon.

“ You still believe this your infantile botherline reasoning. Was Ehie suspended after he became speaker or before”?

Do not take cheeky English words that sound convenient and cheap to you, in place of decorum.

Oga, please stop jumping into issues publicly without adequately reading and following up. Do not follow the crowd who write without reading.

Go back to last August at least. Follow the sequence gently. Get to the point where the decision to impeach the governor was arrived at. Read clearly and get it clearly. Thereafter read the constitution and read the fallout in the other states where the state assembly people decamped. Get properly informed and then prove to yourself who stands on the infantile borderline.

Politics in Nigeria is deeper than what most of us think it is. Politics is like cult and if u fail to dance to their tune u may become sacrificial lamb at the end. Fubara can never stand and play with politics at play, that's why the speaker has to resign for his sanity. But one thing I know is that godfather can never stand in the south south. Wike is only playing himself. No way for him no matter what. He can only try but can never succeed.
which south south? Tony Anenih was a godfather in Edo State for over a decade before oshomole came to uproot him, James Ibori was a godfather in Delta State who installed two governors even while in prison in the UK. Stop chest beating, nobody comes into power on his own anywhere even in the so called advanced democracy not to talk of Nigeria. Don't forget Ben ayade installed his man in cross river state and obaseki is already deciding who will succeed him in Edo State shutting his deputy out, what do you call that?

I guess the chap may be announced as a key member of his administration, a lot of folks resigned.

He just took a fall for Fubara , I guess he has to go for the assembly to go back to Wike(a wrong move by Fubara). A juicy position is awaiting him in the coming days, a lot of Wike guys resigned.

Sure. Ehie was already the speaker at that time.
Clearly Fubara had been informed ahead of the intention of the 27 to decamp to APC. It was the instruction of Wike to them. Wike would keep servicing Tinubu with his so called structure in Rivers state, until some political disagreements arise.

However by the law, put together by the same so called lawmakers, they lost their seats. The claim that PDP in Rivers state is factionalized is a complete lie. It is well publicized that APC has been factionalized in Rivers state since 2015, on the contrary.

The claimed the office of the National secretary of the party is in dispute... So Alot of their corresponding can't be get back to them hence the decamped. However, the matter is for the court to decide not by your assession. Ehie didn't have right to declare their office vacant except through court order.

Don’t mind them. The party was not factionalized at the national level and it was not factionalized at the state level either. The issue of Sam Anyanwu in no way had a bearing on their reckless claim. APC on the other hand has been factionalized for about six or seven years.

Ehie had absolutely the right to declare their seats vacant, given that a court of competent jurisdiction had declared him so. You can check that too

By the way, it is incontrovertible that when state lawmakers decamp to other parties, their seats automatically become vacant. Going to the court is just to establish the fact of allowing them the fair hearing that they need. Again, PDP has stated categorically that their seats are vacant and gone ahead to ask INEC to conduct fresh elections there. The matter as it stands is a constitutional one and the courts must do the needful in the course of time.
