FalseProphet1:
Why did they leave the window open?

If u don't, the water pressure will eventually break through the window and still enter the house, regardless.

The residents should have administered justice, the jungle style. No time to waste.

Fulani as a tribe, has turned itself into a menace.

The story doesn't add up, more update required.

Nothing special, he just took a 40yr old whiskey.

Pls don't take him seriously.

FatimaAbubakar:
Rivers LG elections will hold in October and Wike the evil maggot and his gbegiri online miscreants should go and hug transformer.

Yes, the nearest transformer in their various locations.

The Muslims Northern leaders are busy with 2027 presidential elections calculations, while their backyard is on fire.

Misplaced priority.

Nice one

A bullet to his stupid head will do the job.

e no reach to commit suicide, that's all I can say, Thank you.

Thanks Mr President.

The Pharmaceutical Industries should reciprocate by bringing down their prices accordingly.

Naija must be better, MUST!

Don't be fooled, most of the Oba youths are their customers, you can see them (youths) smoking their favourite meth recklessly.

Nigeria is gradually attaining a failed state status.

Kobojunkie:
Doing nothing will not change this situation at all; it is bound to get worse, not better!

Sadly so....

Kobojunkie:
I know it is politics for sure. The problem is the people of River's State may have even had their constitutional right violated in all of this by their own local government councilmen as well as their governors. This revelation ought to have the people wanting answers not just from the LG officers but their lawmakers, past and present.

I agree with you, but the people in this context have been grossly impoverished, so they're just following who's on the throne, now the gov, sadly so.

Kobojunkie:
They were? I found this while searching.
...meaning the power is or was available by way of the state law which I still can't locate for reasons behind me. It seems the dubious lawmakers attempted who lost their seats because they switched parties tried to pull a fast one on the governor but failed.

Villagepipu & Bixton

Yes, Samuel Nwanosike the most vocal of them all, did 1 year as caretaker chairman and has done 2 tenures of 3yrs each, amounting to 7yrs as Ikwerre LG Chairman, yet he still needs extension.

Obarilomate Ollor of Eleme LG, did 1 year as caretaker Chairman and 3 yrs as elected chairman, he was billed to go for 2nd tenure if not for this their problems,
and some other ones I can't remember their names in the riverine areas, most of the outgone chairmen did 1yr as caretaker under Wike, b4 being elected.

The issue is not about the former chairmen not wanting to go home, it's solely about who controls the soul of the grassroot supports, which is found only in the Local govt systems, as foot soldiers.

It's purely politics, and the odds favour Sim Fubara as the Executive Governor of Rivers State.

adioolayi:
I agree...the question is, why should a governor or why do Governors deliberately fail to conduct elections

Why

1. They dip their hands in the LG allocated funds.
2. They appoint their core loyalists to run shows in the LGs.
3. They maintain absolute grassroot supports when they control the LGs

Note: When you hear Wike shout about his structures, it's actually the grassroot supports, being manned by the LG Chairmen, that's why Fubara refused to conduct LG elections so he can rip out Wike's men and stamp his authority on the grassroots, through the Local govt councils, it's politics, and every politician would do the same.

VillagePipu:
Point us to where the Constitution gives the Governor the power to appoint caretaker Chairmen.

Is as ratified by his three member house of assembly,

Remember, most of the outgone former chairmen now protesting had been caretaker chairmen also in their LG's, during Wike administration.

May his soul RIP

adioolayi:
Then conduct elections before such tenure expires!!!

FGN mobilises INEC for elections, and they are somewhat independent, well funded to act as at when due.

State Government should do same for state electoral commissions...fund them adequately for them to conduct elections as at when due.

You can't say it's constitutional on one hand and you refused to give the SIEC the needed fund to conduct elections ..while at the same time appointing caretaker chairmen. These are also unconstitutional.

If the governor failed to conduct LG elections, (which I think he should have) the next constitutional thing to do is appointment of caretaker chairmen, not tenure extension by whatever guise.

Melagros:
COMRADES, wike must be dumped inside gutter by fire by force, and we go match am pass devil

Wike is a nonsense man
Wike is greedy
Wike is callous
Wike is a desperado
Wike is a supporter and also one of those who've stolen the mandate of the good people of Rivers State in 2023 and gave it to Pablo EscoBAT

Above all, Wike is a chronic alcoholic.

We'll give you ministry of almajiri.

Parasites, terrorists....

The dynamite didn't do well, it should have taken at least two of those gullible elderly fools.

So in their next life, they won't be following a drunkard like Wike blindly.

I dey go chop jollof rice jejely, that's my business.

If Davido like, mek e give another woman belle after, e no concern me.

They're not showing solidarity, so Fubara no send anybody.

The estate is most probably sitting on a water way.

Islamic terrorist institution u mean.

Who cares!

Wike is an alcoholic.

He's very erratic.

These former LG Chairmen are so shameless......tueh!

Nigeria's Christian and Muslim pilgrimage is a complete waste of resources and a huge misplaced priority.

Religion has done Nigeria as a country extreme harm than good.

We as a people play religious politics at the expense of insecurity, poor governance, hunger, disease, etc.

Nigeria is undoing herself, it's all our fault.

Check heaven, sis

Rivers state is very peaceful as we speak, nothing dey shelle!
