Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has ordered businesses to shut down even as he declared a public holiday in the state for the visit of president-elect, Bola Tinubu.


Announcing the decision on Tuesday during a statewide broadcast, Wike directed that Tinubu would be visiting the state for a 2-day working visit to commission some legacy projects executed by his administration.

The governor is of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, while Tinubu is of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Although the Governor supported Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election against the candidate of his party, Atiku Abubakar, he has remained a PDP member, even as rumour remains rife that he would decamp immediately he steps down as governor.


His tenure runs out on May 29, the day Tinubu is expected to be inaugurated as president of Nigeria.

There are also reports that Wike has been pencilled down as Minister of Interior when Tinubu takes over power.

The report has not been disputed and his camp has refused to comment.

The governor was the arrowhead of the five governors who boycotted the PDP presidential campaign over disagreement in the region the candidate should come from and its former National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu ‘s refusal to quit.


As he moves closer to the APC, Wike expressed admiration for Tinubu stating it’s an honour to have the president-elect visit the state, his first state visit since he was declared the winner of the election.

As he grounds businesses for the visit, he specifically ordered that businesses located along Rumuola to Rumuokwuta roads in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the State should be closed on Wednesday, 3rd May.

Tinubu is billed to commission the Rumuola/Rumuokwuta Flyover and the ultra-modern Magistrates’ Court Complex, Port Harcourt, on Wednesday 3rd, and Thursday, 4th May 2023, respectively.


He said, “For us, it is an honour to the government and people of Rivers State to host the President-Elect on this historic visit. Consequently, I urge all Rivers citizens to come out en masse to receive our President-Elect, His Excellency Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and display the traditional Rivers hospitality as he commissions these legacy projects to God’s glory and the advancement of our development.

“Given this, I hereby declare Wednesday, 3rd May 2023, a public holiday to enable the people of Rivers State to receive our President-Elect rousingly.

“Furthermore, all shops and business premises along Rumuola to Rumuokwuta roads in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the State shall remain closed from 8.00 a.m. to 3.00 p.m. on Wednesday, 3rd May 2023.

“I urge all labour unions and security agencies to comply with this closure order,” he declared.

Thank God we dodged Pandora. He would have been saying "yes Sir", "thank you daddy" to them thereby dragging into disrepute

Revolution2022:
Two captain cannot steer a ship.They will soon fall out of political alliance.tinubu doest roll with a disloyal politician.

.

Wike may likely replace Amaechi in APC vis a vis. But Wike seems to always out muscles Amaechi. What reason can one adduced to this?

Wike has declared public holiday in Port Harcourt to welcome jagaban to the State. Wike is a bad ass politician . As for werey'n'madu, give him a life sentence to serve as a deterrent to Pandora

Nimpmod, close this thread. This boy is a compulsive lair.

None of my business...just don't like the hide and seek they are playing. Nigerians are tired of having leaders who spend a huge chunk of their time to receive medical care abroad..Well if actually he is hiding it won't be for long..they all have a course.

Then wait and watch it unfolds instead of screaming about nothing. Nobody can cheat nature no matter how much the person tried. It is not everybody that shivers that suffers from cold.

Obi has lost his memory over election

Guyman01:
That was a slip, he had earlier mentioned 2005 and I was expecting the presenter to call his attention to the slip but he also missed it.
This is not supposed to be news to open a thread

But if it were Tinubu it will be good for news.

Haljardon:
No Wonder Your Mom Begs For a Crempie , No Wonder I Let My Dorbaman Give it to Her ,

Her Pussy is To smelly For me To have Fun with.

Your foster mothers that raise you through motherless baby homes must have gone through depression raising a worthless swine who goes around engaging dogs in orgy.

No wonder everybody in your house tested positive to AIDS and all manners of sexually transmitted diseases.

Blitzking:
Wat exactly are they managing tinubu for.. is it CAP WITH OR WITHOUT SPINAL MET, BPH, LUMBAR SPONDYLORADICULOPATHY WAT EXACTLY OR DEMENTIA AS A RESULT OF AGING, PARKINSONISM WHY ISNT HIS CASE OPEN FOR THE PUBLIC WHEN TRUMP VISITED THE HOSPITAL AMERICANS KNEW WAT WAS WRONG.

We're you forbidden to go to the hospital and ask? You are the one looking for straw to hold on to. Tinubu is got no straw. The man is hale and hearty.

If your father died of a horrible ailment that doesn't make other people's fathers susceptible to diseases

Haljardon:
Bastard, No wonder your Mom Tells me about Your screwed up dad, while I lift her legs and Bleep her , while letting My Dogs lick the Damn cum out of her smelly pussy.

You and dog again. You can actually pretended as a beggar since you already have low self-esteem and beg for money which you can take to ashawo house to do your normal 10sec instead of bedding your mother, sisters and dog.

There is a solution for low self-esteem. You can find it in psychiatric hospital. Don't allow low self-esteem to push you into bestiality.

Nifmod ban this boy. You closed the first thread due to false information. The same miscreant is here with the same lies

Haljardon:
Just The way Your dad Suffered From Low Sperm Count, even IVF was Done For 12yrs Every single Day Before You were Conceived Out of Luck from the sperm of another Bastard.

Lucky bastard

You must have sampled your mum and sisters due to low self-esteem and inferiority complex. Keep fertilising your mum and sisters eggs. There is nothing low self-esteem can not make you do

Haljardon:
Let's Test me Test It On Your Mum....

If I won't Drown Her in My Cum.

So, you are into mums. You must be suffering from low self-esteem

I thought you are from the East

Na so Ukraine big? I thought by now that Russia and must have reached every town and villages over there.

Füçƙ Russia though

GeneralPula:
Sense?

You honestly think if such exist in their region, they would be sitting at home every week?

Their politicians kids and family are not sitting at home every week o. Only the innocent Igbos dey suffer ham..

They are called headless mob for a reason

hdaveyork:
I did not say Obituary o i beg ur pardon bro

Lol. I hail your pardon bro

GeneralPula:
His point is that Onyeama is Igbo that’s why they can’t call him out..

Abike is a Yoruba that’s why they can call him out..

Hmmm. They are eternally doomed as people. Don't they have sense in that region at all?

And yet they will be crying victim everywhere.

Girls dey read this kind post too?

001Lagos:
you're always in a hurry to type trash especially when it has to do with the Igbos that you hated so much

But when you want to sell your house and landed property you remember to sell it to the Igbos

What is your point exactly? That Geoffrey onyeama is not the minister of foreign affairs? Or what?

Juanmike:
Even now he is better than your past and present.

That one counts for nothing. Pandora is number one loser as of today. He has lost his sanity after being beaten.


He is still campaigning after election

hdaveyork:
Hehehehe.... oo now i understand, so dis peoples work is to cast spells, on voters to go and vote obituaries(dead men)...... Chai i no fit shout, dis life ehn,

When you say obituary, Pandora comes to mind. So, he has the backing of the witches and wizards yet he failed woefully.

Mitchy49:
There's no obvious difference between you and the demented Sowore. If they increase wages, what do u think will happen the prices of commodities and services when everyone isn't a federal staff?

If it is increased, you complain, if it is not , you will still complain. I hail o

Juanmike:
But Pandora is far better than your next generation will ever be.

Mumu man. We talking about now and you are talking about next generation. You headless mobs are just too dull. Pandora is a goner career wise and politically

thesicilian:
This Sowore guy doesn't talk and act like a presidential material

He is far better than Pandora, a slowpoke that lies about anything and everything

And folks in Edo still say their wives don't commit infidelity.

tonye33:

Now add yam or bread to finish it off

thesicilian:
Obi is hoping for a miracle

He is looking for a miracle in the wrong place. He is not engaging Ngige this time around.

You mean he has committed more crimes than the ones we already know
