Wike giving it to Fubara front back. Wike is too strong to be defeated.

Fubara allowed Ipob and obedients to deceive him.

I will advice Fubara to go and prostrate and beg wike.

Wike is too strong .

If by the interpretation of the the highest courti n the land that he wasn't a governor , how comes that a lower court stops him from facing repercussions benefited therein ?
The three arms of government should just have a soul search and save Nigeria from been lawless nation.

Unfortunately for Wike, this Celestine Omehia has been destined to be feeding fat on Rivers' money.

See as these people are cutting wike's influence in Rivers state. The analogy that nobody can rule for ever is true. Wike need to cow down totally cos what's coming for him may be too much for him to bear. They are seriously relegating him to the ground in Rivers state.

Over half of a billion naira of state's money went to someone who didn't deserve it but all what the brains of these two dummies above could process was that Wike was humiliated! Shocking!!

And if money was mistakenly transferred to the account of ordinary citizen, this same useless judge wouldn't hesitate to send such person to prison if he can't refund the money

That is why they spend money like paper. They do not know what it takes to nurture a business to profitability. Look at all of them, non have businesses or source of livelihood you can point to. Wealth without enterprise. Imagine that minister having 500m briefcase contract to determine who needs palliatives. How long will you and i, legitimate struggling Nigerians have to trade or work to see 500m?

The tyranny of wike is over...wike is a very useless person and a dictator who can't stand it when things doesn't goes it's way...he recognized omehia to taunt Amaechi and when omehia decided to support atiku he decided to punish him...
I will say it very clear, wike is not a leader but a tyrant and it's days are over... very soon he will go into political Oblivion.

The situation exposes a significant imbalance in governance and priorities. While some politicians enrich themselves within just a few years of service and secure lavish pensions, long-serving civil servants receive inadequate wages and little to no retirement support. This disparity underscores the need for comprehensive reforms and measures to ensure fairness and accountability in public service compensation.

Wike restored Omehia's benefits as a 'former governor' and later cancelled them when the latter joined Atiku's camp.

Nigerian judiciary is something else,
But what happens if such or even less is mistakenly transferred to a poor man's account.
Will Nigeria ever gets better

The money paid by Rivers State government to Celestine Omehia was INTENTIONAL and wasn't a MISTAKE!

Even the Court is aware that it was because he fell out with Wike politically that is why Wike wanted to punish Omehia by requesting the latter to pay back what he received as pension!

This is not a mistake, they knowingly transfer the money to him even he did not ask them to. Is like you dash somebody money and later ask him to refund it.

Amigoss:


He sees it,he knows...He actually introduced to our polity,Asiwaju for a reason cheesy

Ironically, the president is one of them. As governor of Lagos State between 1999 and 2007, his administration was the first to chart this unpopular policy course, which has now careened into more than half of the 36 states of the federation. This is despicable.


Lagos State set this noxious ball rolling in 2007 with a law that provides a former governor life pension at the rate of N30 million per annum; a house in Lagos and Abuja for those who served two terms; six brand new cars every three years; free medical care for him and his family members; and a retinue of domestic servants. Successive governors after the class of 2007 have upped the ante

Thank God it's not Peter Obi that started this law.
If it was him, APC rats would have ran out of their holes in their hundreds to write about Peter Obi who stole his state through the pension law.
But since na their Oga mess this mess, everywhere quiet like graveyard
