| It Is Over For Wike by Afonja44(op): 4:19pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
I really don't know where Wike will go from here. He has lost control of Rivers state completely. 1. Wike lost the governor's office 2. Wike lost the Rivers House of Assembly 3. Wike lost the LG 4. Wike lost the people 5. Wike lost the ex-governors and elders The only thing Wike has right now is the Presidency and part of the courts which is not enough to derail any sitting governor since Tinubu himself knows this during his OBJ feud. If Wike decides to hold onto Rivers LG allocation, it won't make any difference. Rivers state like Lagos is rich enough to fund her LGAs 10 times over. Secondly, those boys Fubara installed don't really need money. Look at them - young nobodies that will just be grateful to even be considered part of the system. Their time will probably come during the next Rivers gubernatorial election where they will be expected to weaponize their offices and lay claim to succeeding Fubara. If for example, Wike's Nwanosike decides to go against the guy in Ikwerre, he will be disgraced because that young man is unknown in politics. Nobody knows what he can or can't do. Fear people with nothing to lose in politics and business. Also, come 2027, it's very possible for Tinubu to want to be on Fubara's good side since Fubara has shown that he is in full control of Rivers. Wike's Rivers votes secured Tinubu his win this last election and Wike cannot guarantee 25% of it as things stand. Add to Tinubu's lost Northern votes, getting all the southern votes he can will be vital for Tinubu. I really don't know what options Wike has left now. The viable ones seem exhausted. |

Wike only option is to be a puppet to Tinubu cos if he offends Tinubu, he will have nowhere to run to since he has burn all bridges. I think Tinubu is the one pulling the strings in this game and is narrowing the options for Wike, since it's hard to trust Wike |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Afonja44(op): 4:34pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
richmond500:When 2027 reaches Tinubu will have no choice than to abandon Wike and align with Fubara especially since he & Fubara have no known feud. Rivers is the only southern state that can guarantee 1m votes to a single candidate. Tinubu is a power hungry man and his loyalty to Wike will be discarded by then. He may use one of his boys like Gbaja to land Wike in trouble and use it to sideline him. Tinubu is sly to not come out openly for Wike all these while. |

Afonja44:Anambra, Delta, Oyo and Rivers are southern states that could guarantee u 1m votes. I'm not too sure about oyo |

richmond500:You must be a joker. Show evidence. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by richmond500: 5:29pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:Delta and Rivers gave PDP 1m votes plus in 2014. When did u start following election? |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by SmartPolician: 5:45pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
richmond500:Technology has changed a lot of things since then. I doubt any state can give a candidate one million votes apart from Kano State because Northern Nigeria is more interested in voting than the South where voter apathy is the order of the day. As for whether Wike is finished or not, that's not my business. INEC should build a tech-driven and reliable electoral system devoid of human manipulation. That will correct a lot of political madness. This is all I care about. |

Wike and Reno Omokri will become the SSA to Tinubu. Wike... SSA. on Rice distribution Omokri. SSA on Palliative distribution |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by blacknp(m): 5:57pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:I believe that from your assertion it is factual conclusion that Tinubu has already won Rivers State. Wike 1 million votes, Fubara 1 million votes, what will be left for Abubakar Malu Atiku & his boy Gringory Obi, & his new presumed running mate Alhaji Kwakwanso? |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Afonja44(op): 5:59pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
richmond500:Why did you reduce it to just Delta? No more Anambra and Oyo like you said? ![]() Secondly, the dynamics then favoured PDP because Delta was a PDP state for the incumbent then against a core Northerner. Today, Delta is PDP-run, Tinubu the incumbent is APC and the favourite is Peter Obi (LP). I repeat, Rivers state is the only southern state that can guarantee 1m bulk votes for any candidate in 2027. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by blacknp(m): 6:01pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:Back to Back.

| Re: It Is Over For Wike by richmond500: 6:01pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:I said I am not sure of Oyo, but then Anambra turnout for last election was 28% yet they gave more than half a million votes. That is one of the smallest turnout in an election. Also Rivers state and Delta state has given 1m votes only once and that time, I believe Delta gave more votes than Rivers. |

blacknp:I know you attended Ile Kewu & English is not very familiar to you so I won't be too harsh on you. Fubara can give Tinubu all of Rivers votes if he can guarantee his own gubernatorial re election. Fubara can also give it to Atiku just to further dent Wike in PDP. Fubara can also give it to Obi if momentum favours him by then. The point I was making is that Rivers is now one bulk vote from Fubara to the highest bidder. |

Afonja44:Which Fubara? the puppet that Nyesom Wike single handedly installed as Governor of Rivers State, to hinder Rotimi Amaechi from installing Tonye Cole of The APC, is who you Oblivious minded Thing is purporting to make noise about? Woe guaranteed Tinubu I will deliver Rivers state to you, let APC leave Rivers Governorship for me. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Afonja44(op): 6:07pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
richmond500:Anambra can't give 1m votes The next one turnout will be lower sef because APC incumbent powers will ensure the votes are reduced |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Afonja44(op): 6:08pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
blacknp:Well, the puppet is now in full control of Rivers state. The puppet master is now homeless. Wake up. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Noblechykk(m): 6:11pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
able20:Do you want Reno to have a bigger office than Wike. It is Reno that should be SSA on Rice distribution, an office under the office of the SSA on Palliative distribution which Wike should head. Take ya time |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by richmond500: 6:11pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:those are technicalities and if we use technicalities then even Rivers can't give 1m votes cos APC now has a strong foundation in Rivers |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by blacknp(m): 6:12pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:Sure a stupid puppet that is ignorant to the fact of one of the 48 laws of power, that never bite the hand that feeds you. Simple minded things like yourself cannot even learn from the Oshiomole Obaseki & Shaibu saga. Sure Wike knew Fubara was a weak man hence we coronated the ungrateful animal Governor, but what he didn’t know was the book worm accountant was extremely socially foolish. It is a proven fact that You never know an ungrateful fool, until you give them power. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Ojiofor: 6:13pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:Stop dreaming because Fubara will not rig for Tinubu like Wike did in last election and Rivers people will not vote for him either. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by Afonja44(op): 6:13pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
richmond500:Which foundation? Wike? ![]() |

blacknp:Explain how the foolish man is now in 100% control? |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by blacknp(m): 6:15pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:100% control of what? |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by richmond500: 6:16pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:not Wike. But they have supporters across the LGAs. Even today's election, people came out and vote for them in my unit, I wasn't happy with it but people still voted for APC. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by blacknp(m): 6:21pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:Fubara is a dead Governor walking the plank, what you call a lame duck Governor, those men in Abuja in due course will finish that village man in port harcourt, no pity for the ungrateful idiot. People like your modest self never go Abuja b4 to understand the enormous powers that vest in the Federal capital? Even mumu Fubara will not support your obnoxious way of reasoning, APC doesn’t need to involve themselves, Wike can handle his stooge by himself, he doesn’t need the President’s assistance. |
| Re: It Is Over For Wike by cucumbar: 6:28pm On Oct 05, 2024 |
Afonja44:Dey play. Do you know what state capture is? Tinubu no need your vote or rivers vote in 2027. Una put mafia for office Dey do permutation and combination. With or without fubara, or Wike, he will have his way. |

cucumbar:You dey mind that Afonja44? whilst it should be common political fact that because of the divide & rule of Rivers state politics as was in in 2023, Fubara & Wike are both in support of The President for 2027. Back 2 back, follow who know road should be the motto, President Tinubu na Pep Guardiola of Nigerian politics. |
