Krankhead: Brother Fugbara is a fool. Wike made him Cashier, Accountant, Accountant General and now governor. I know at one time at the other . How do you normally feel when people you helped turn back to pay you bad
No train from primary school to university, so because of that he must empty the treasury of Rivers state, all this question you should direct them to Wike and ask him why he is so greedy
Newsline09: Breaking: Amaka Obi "SACKED" by Governor Soludo
By: Ebuka Asogwa| Awka
In a dramatic turn of events, Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State has wielded the axe on Mrs. Amaka Obi, the transition Chairman of Idemmili South Local Government Area and other of her colleagues. This was contained in a letter signed by Hon. Tony-Collins Nwabunwanne, the Commissioner of Chieftaincy and Community Affairs, dated 17th May, 2024 and was sighted by our correspondent.
The governor's directive, instructing all 21 local government transition chairmen to step down from their positions by Monday, 20th May 2024, was issued following one Mrs. Amaka Obi's resistance to allowing the conduct of a free and fair mock election for her successor as directed by the Governor. Amaka Obi's antics and defiance were to impose herself on the people inspite the stance of key stakeholders from the towns in Idemmili South on a power shift away from Awka-Etiti, which has monopolized the Chairmanship position of the local government for eight ( uninterrupted years.
Amidst mounting pressure from various quarters, including youth, women, and other interest groups, Mrs. Amaka Obi persisted in her defiance, even going as far as allegedly employing thugs to disrupt the process. Her unilateral declaration of victory further aggravated tensions, disregarding the wishes of both the APGA party and key stakeholders.
With the political atmosphere in Idemmili South reaching boiling point, Governor Soludo has taken decisive action, relieving Mrs. Amaka Obi of her duties and mandating her to hand over to the Head of Service of the local government council by the stipulated date of Monday, 20th May 2024.
The official communication, titled "EXPIRATION OF TENURE AND HANDOVER TO HEADS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATION (HsLGA)," marks the end of Mrs. Amaka Obi's tenure, signaling a significant progress in the politics of Idemmili South.
The letter from the ministry of Chieftaincy and Community Affairs reads: "Following the expiration of your tenure as Transition Committee Chairman, you are hereby directed to handover the affairs of your Local Government Council to the Head of Local Government Administration (HLGA), in your respective Local Government Councils.
2. This directive takes effect from Monday, 20th day of May, 2024.
3. Thank you for your service to the state.
This is how SIM would fire those Rivers LGA chairmen by 18th of June 2024
Bobloco: The presidency has said President Bola Tinubu is not bothered about the game the 2023 presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar and his Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi are playing.
Tinubu’s Special Adviser on information and strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said the President was focused on fixing the country’s economy and not the game Atiku and Obi are playing.
Onanuga spoke against the backdrop of a possible merger between Atiku and Obi.
Last week, Obi had met with Atiku, former Senate President Bukola Saraki and a PDP chieftain, Sule Lamido.
Speaking with BBC Hausa, Atiku had hinted on stepping down for the former Anambra State governor during the 2027 presidential election.
However, speaking on Saturday in Abuja, Onanuga said: “We are only surprised that they are plotting just one year after an election they lost. They are still behaving like sore losers.
“We are not bothered by the games they are playing, as they are revealing their mindset. They are mere politicians who only think about the next election.
“President Tinubu is a true statesman who is concerned about fulfilling his promises to Nigerians.
“At the moment, he is very busy resetting the economy of our country for the better, laying the foundation that ought to have been laid decades ago.”
Because they are planning to rig, because no sensible person would vote him back to aso rock, would they vote a man that made so much hardship in the country
Allisgud: Their is always this saying in politics that their is" NO PERMANENT ENEMIES "which I ascert not that true,some politicians have caused and made their colleagues,close friends loose funds and important positions in politics in the name of betrayal,disloyalty,ungratefull attitudes which has made them sworn enemies.this is my point,who is that two politicians you think if they reconcile it will bastardized your thoughts towards politicians that all this politicians are whining us the masses,theirs no need carrying them on your head for nothing, arguing unnecessarily For me I think is reconciliation of wike and atiku,omoh the day this two people go come together support each,I no go argue about politicians with anybody again Oya nairalanders feel free to share ur thoughts 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
2aces: Nigeria that can't conduct free and fair elections at home, diaspora vote will be a humongous disaster. More reason to believe South Africa is way ahead of Nigeria in everything.
you can say that again, Nigeria should be ranked with countries like Sudan and Eritrea, just mouth and no actions
Its a pity Wike had to allow the relationship get to this point, him being the elder here should have being able to manage this relationship better, but his greed would lead to his destruction.
BondRiv: There is no faction. Only clowns and the desperate and clueless governor are decieving themselves. Fubara can and will be impeached by the house with its speaker Martin Amaewhule.
Wake up from sleep, they are planning to kidnapp the Chief Judge so they can force him to set up committee that would indict the governor, the chief Judge now lives in the government house lol
all this talk would stop since the President is not backing Wike, Fubara would so deal with him. The Abuja High court and the Rivers High are both of the same Level so dont think the abuja court is more superior.
It is as cheap as drawing lines on a road and buying driverless trains on wheels that can follow the line
This new technology is a no-brainer. It eliminates the need for building rail tracks on a smooth surface. Essentially, it utilizes drawn lines that trains can travel on. Trains can be easily rerouted by manually driving on wheels to a new line, eliminating the need for a permanent structure. It will eliminate the need for constructing a separate rail track on the Coastal Highway. The Nigerian minister of work should reach out to the Chinese companies implementing this technology.
Governors of States in Nigeria can easily adopt this as well.
Dont mind them next time in their lives they will never try this kind of shit with Isreal, this is how they would suffer till they end of man kind eating from hand to mouth, Gaza would never be re-built

Lumarstone: So Igbos get a well developed city like this and they're still trooping to cities in western Nigeria. Maybe that city is not good for business transactions.
The sea Port and Air Port is the reason for that if not Lagos would be worse than Ekiti state
Jessyjeff: It's the economy, stupid! Nigerians will never forget the party called APC.
This period is Nigeria's great depression. History will definitely judge folks behind the present economic mess in the country.
You will still see them queue up to vote APC in 2027 , that is why I don't pity them, politicians should deal with them, ideally APC should not get more than 15 percent votes nation wide in other countries, but still lots of people would come out to vote for them and the rest would be rigged
Smelling Lagos 😂 open your eyes oga, with all the resources the City is very dirty, go and look at other great cities in world, please use something else but not Lagos, that would be very retrogressive
