Like or hate Wike, his a politician who knows how to play the game.
The three arms of government are not fully independent.
They depend on each other to survive.
That doesn't mean they should compromise.

RIVERS ASSEMBLY TUSSLE: GOV. FUBARA PERFECTS PLANS TO STAGE PROTEST

There is a growing concern within the camp of Governor Siminalayi Fubara that the series of losses recorded in the ongoing litigation are clear signs that the government is gradually coming to an end.

Rivers Watch reliably gathered that the governor's camp are preparing to stage multiple protests to cry wolf. They have been warned by their lawyers that they have bad cases at different levels of the court, and they cannot win the final battle.

We have it on good authority that the first thing they plan to do to water the ground for the protest is to launch a massive campaign of calumny against the judiciary. This we learned is aimed at justifying the planned protest.

Governor Fubara and some key members of his kitchen cabinet allegedly met with some media executives and publishers at the government house, Port Harcourt recently to perfect the plan to paint it like the judiciary is against the governor and his administration.

Over $500,000 has been earmarked for that purpose. Some selected media houses and public affairs analysts have been commissioned to carry out the attack on the judiciary.

We were also informed that there will be a lot of newspaper publications from pseudo groups condemning the judiciary as part of the multidimensional campaign.

Every judge handling any case involving the political crisis in Rivers State has been penciled down as a target. Even the Chief Justice of Nigeria and justices of the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal will not be spared in the smear campaign.

In the coming weeks, all these will unfold to herald their protest all in a bid to whip up sentiments to gain public sympathy, we gathered.

Recall that on October 30, 2023, Rivers State House of Assembly led by the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule removed Edison Ehie as Leader of the House, suspended him and three others following the burning of the hallowed chamber of the assembly.

Moments later, Edison Ehie declared himself the Speaker. Governor Fubara went on to present the 2024 appropriation bill to him and three other suspended lawmakers.

An action that Justice Omotoso of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja nullified in its entirety, and declared that Mr. Ehie was never elected speaker of the house, in his ruling in January 2024.

Instead of obeying the ruling, Governor Fubara chose to appoint Oko Jumbo as speaker with two others as members of the assembly.

On two separate occasions, the Court of Appeal has ruled that Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule is the authentic Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly. One was the squashing of the ex parte order granted by Justice Wali of the Rivers State High Court that Oko Jumbo relied on, for lacking jurisdiction, the other was the affirming of the judgment of Justice Omotoso of the Federal High Court.

Eteka1:
I read somewhere that Fubara has launched a multi-billion Naira smear campaign that is targeted at the Judiciary and specific judges. The aim is to blackmail and intimidate the Judiciary to do his bidding.

If they bring you to court to provide evidence now, you'll begin to cry

Can you provide the particulars of those who told you??

The judiciary has been captured, by the present federal govt, very soon court order will be like tissue paper.

Sermwell:

And even if Fubara did, so? Does he not have a right to fight for his survival?

We are watching 😂

But Wike fought and insulted others for 8 years and you dolts cheered him on.

If you cannot tell the world what fubara did to deserve the impeachment attempt in October, last year, keep mute please.

booblacain:
The ability of Public office holders to give gifts with government monies should be completely outlawed in this country. That itself is a conduit for corruption.

Rubbish talk,as this Odinkalu has been spewing nonsense at all times!
So the fact that she laid Judicial Complex is now deemed to be a bought government Judicial-Officer.
This are fake stories that normally comes from the So called bittered Obedient that you think should know better,but they love fake news.
Is building Official Complex - for Judges,an Executive works or Judiciary duties?
Rubbish and bitter people every!

who is talking about impeachment here? Besides, the House of Assembly has the power to impeach a Governor. It's there in the constitution for a reason.

This "professor" is the reason academic prowess of our universities is at an all-time low.

One would expect a serious-minded academic would look at the substance of the cases and use sensible arguments to show that the judgements were compromised. In reviewing an academic paper, a sensible academic talks about the substance of the publication and not the relationship between the author and the assessors.

Chidi Odinkalu claimed money was given to judges apparently to favour Wike. I suggest Wike takes him to court to prove his claims.

This is how people tell a lie and the rest of society would run with it.

Read the article again.

Woke never took sowore to court for making the same claims odinkalu is making today. Your guess is as good as mine. They are true.

Please don't be a joker. Do you know its illegal for Wike or any member of the executive to build houses or buy cars for the judiciary?

The NJC is tasked with such things.

I agree... BUT FOR WHAT REASONS? Till date, none of you has told his crime as at October 2023.

go and read through the notice of impeachment that the House of Assembly served on him. Although that is not the issue right now because that impeachment notice was withdrawn after the President's intervention.

Who be the Head?

I mean, every system is different and we need to be introspective about our personal situation as a country by acknowledging wherever we may find ourselves. Obidient mentality, otherwise known as wailing is allowed sha.

Even Trump used the Justice system in America to sway a constitutional decision to his liking. If you know you know.

Btw, who is this wailer sef.

CommonSense1967:
Trash.

The same people abusing Wike now were praising him when he was rigging elections for Jona and using the Judiciary with the help of Odili to win all sorts of abnormal judgments.
At the end of the day, the average Nigerian is not interested in any good governance, what they are interested in is that the person they support should be in charge.

If Wike had supported Obi during the last election, these people would be telling you how great Wike is.

Hypocrites!!!!!

I think I agree with you on the bolded

Did you also read on that same site that the US wants to turn over Area 51 to Nigeria?

Cry well well. Useless professor of nothing. Should Judges be living under Abuja bridges. Ogun kee your Mama

Having gone through your messages in the past, I sincerely wonder why most of you are so bent on destroying this beautiful country.

It takes speaking truth to power to build and it takes hypocrisy to destroy.

I know that what you are typing is not what you would have been typing if Jonathan of the PDP was the president today.

Mr man, if you know, you know; if you don't know, you're on your own. Shikena!

Did Wike do anything? Isn’t it the government doing its duties? Isn’t it the duty of government to provide accommodation and comfort for judges? Anybody that wants our Judges to live wretched and miserable lives will live wretched and miserable all the days on his/her life

Odinkalu is neither here nor there in his criticism of Wike and the judiciary.


He was merely rigmaroling, rumbling, grunting and grumbling without being able to specifically pinpoint what his grouse is.



Building official quarters for judicial officers, to the best of my knowledge, isn't tantamount to bribery of the judiciary as the practice is not limited to Rivers State or Wike.



Odinkalu shouldn't criticize people out of personal beef but constructively.



Hate him or love him, Wike is a performer par excellence irrespective of his follies and foibles.





@hotseat

Wike is not a betrayal like many politicians... Pdp have a very good resource in wike but some persons in the party are just too dull to utilize it... only Tinubu know his worth

U sud now know why Tinubu will never even entertain any thought of removing Wike!
He is the de facto president of the country!
Why do u think most of the governors attended wike wife's inauguration as appeal court judge?

Mere seen the name Odinkalu I knew its same bittered slowpoke talking from his anus.

Na Wike headache go kill all of you las las.

Just simply Wike didn't allowed that jobless political fradster called obi to win Rivers these anukgboko ewu bittered a s s holes have gone mad dancing naked all over the internet bereaving and weeping helplessly.

Una go cry taya. No vacancy in Aso Rock till 2031 s is better una cry poper now to satisfaction because 2031 still 7 years away. Una go learn lessons in hardway.

Emergency Nigeria Citizen idiots. When it favours them they are Nigerians when it's not favouring them Nigeria must burn. Odunkalu thunder fire you. Ewu!

It's concerning to imply the judiciary is corrupt simply because a ruling didn't favor you. Consider the case of Obi's reinstatement and many examples, which demonstrate the judiciary's capacity for impartiality.
You guys should grow up and stop constituting nuisance on social media.

So because the name is Igbo,you imply he is supporting Obi?
So u mean u read the entire content and this is what u could spew?
The level of ignorance here is disappointing and scary!
For ur information,odinkalu never liked or supported Obi!
Keep swimming in ur gutter of ignorance!

I am only going to respond to you once and leave it at that as I have learnt that some people I responded to were probably insane.

We live in a society where people say things without responsibility. We were here when people called a judgement that awarded victory to a governor "Supreme Court Governor" without reading one line of the judgement.

We were also here when a social media nuisance accused someone of allowing his anus to be violated to win Grammy. Where is his proof? He claimed it was a joke!

We saw how someone who came 3rd claimed he won an election and had zero proof of how he won. There were no contrary figures and facts to counter INEC. Even the INEC Chairman was accused of receiving a bribe. We have asked for the amount he was paid and how it was paid. They even accused the former CJN of meeting Tinubu in London, whereas the man was in his office.

Here, in the past two days, I was accused of calling for the death of Tigris Gambaryan. Some individual came up with the lie because he lost money due to sanctions on Binance, sanctions I supported.

I know your mind is already made up. A so-called professor insinuated the judiciary is corrupt and he wrote an article without analyzing one judgement to show how the substance of law was abused.

Many of you will be locked up in advanced countries with the mindset you have. Accuse someone like this without proof and see if you won't be fired from your job and put on trial.

Chief wailer. This one will wail forever ♾️

chrisxxx:
Ask Fubara to take the right action. The law is not emotional. It can't go further than what is presented. Ask Fubara to look also for good lawyer.

Someone that knows Wike very well told me that there's nobody on earth that Wike cannot bribe.
