It means Wike is now in charge of the house of assembly
Which house of Assembly? The one the governor can demolish anytime?

Honestly you're an angel, this is what is really making me sad, look at how bad it is for us now in our nation, we no more hold our leaders responsible. If Wike or Fubara wins, what effect will that have even on the one that is commenting, who has done this to us.
michlins:
the citizens of this country are very funny and disoriented plus out of touch of what to require from people they elected.

Our concern is who won between Wike and his protege. In a country without basic amenities like water, power and other things.

These people will be doing this until four years will elapse with the citizens getting nothing from it meanwhile, they're busy looting the resources with reckless abandon.

Omo!!!!

I thought he resigned because his principal compromised.
He was not honourable afterall.

I said it yesterday....

Don't write off Fubara. He will plant a strong headed stooge at the House of Assembly to checkmate some members loyal to Wike.
I am not sure this a good move because typically you need a less dramatic person as chief of staff who everyone including your enemies can relate with. For example how do you not expect hostile communications between this cOS and the house of assembly considering their antecedents?

the more you see, the less you understand....what fabura was doing was diplomatic way of cooking wike with cool water. if not, wike shld tell us the whisky he took b4 and after "THE DIRECTIVE".

Nice one governor! The kind of loyalty that has for the governor is out of this world, the kind of loyalty you only see in the movies! He was ready to ride till death with the governor! Wike go don offer am better money to switch side and he turn it down. Governor fabura would have been a finished man if the speaker had sided with wike, and he would have kissed the governor seat goodbye. The speaker was the vocal point in this battle.

SIM and his Oga, Wike won. They have reach an agreements which everybody want implemented.

The losers are those clamour for war in Rivers, the IPOBI that couldn't penetrate through Oyinbo during endsars.

They hate Wike with their might

Wike surrounded Fubara with his men.

E remain make him men dey baff and clean Fubara bumbum.

I am glad Fubara had the guts to fight. No guts, no glory!
Fubara was also his man until he started listening to outsiders counsel...so what's your point exactly.

you know nothing, he was never speaker, he was deputy speaker during wikes tenure and he actually lobbied to go Federal, when it didn't work he lobbied for chief of staff and wike said no. He manipulated fubara to remove the speaker for his selfish interest, fubara gave him N3b to induce the other members to make him speaker but it didn't work that's why he instigated fubara to burn down the house, it has nothing to do with loyalty, he's a greedy and desperate man that wants to be governor, he made a lot of money from wike and recently fubara and he's not loyal to anybody, he's only loyal to himself and his stomach, fubara should be wary of him.

The Ipob members do not know that Edison leaving the house is a minus one loyalists of Fubara.
Secondly CoS doesn't have a real power. His power is limited to what the governor wants. He can be fired at any time.

Fubara has surrendered the state legislature to Wike. But it's a good peace move.

Chief of staff to the governor and a speaker of a State assembly, which one command higher authority?

The way you guys throw insults. It befales me.

Ode, if the house of Assembly is barricaded by security operatives loyal to the governor, what will the house members do?

That matter is dead na.......
The plaintiff and major beneficiary has left the office under contention. The case is merely academic now. They'll simply withdraw it at the next court sitting.

It's good for peace!
