This is a sad and unfortunate turn of event. The constitutionality of the suspension of the governor is also questionable as the constitution doesn’t provide for the appointment of an administrator even in emergency situations. Again, declaration of emergency rule requires the approval of 2/3 of the National Assembly.

Whatever the case, it is my hope that constitutional order will be restored to Rivers State as soon as possible. I wish the new administrator all the best as he settles down to restore peace in the state.
Like you care. Let the military try using force to handle us that are affected by this senseless declaration of SOE in my beloved state. Una go see wetin go happen for this country. Una think say we love to be slaves or cowards. Useless president.

People are too shallow minded and dumb to realize Tinubu actually just saved Fubara from definite impeachment.

If your intellect is pedestrian you can’t u derstand the moves of a genius!
Where will you now put supreme court justices ruling

fubara was an amateur in beef with a grown man.
tinubu just delivered a masterstroke level A checkmate in politics.

Nas rapped on the track, 'mastermind'

'Make your enemies believe there's love there
'Cause in war, belief is all fair
Rock them to sleep, s- in your Jeep
And you ain't never know the plot was from me
It's from my masterminds... '

NEVER liked Tinubu but always thought he was a political SAVANT.

But declaring a SoE in Rivers was a BIG mistake.
It's downright RETTTARDED.

His base in the North has been FRACTURED.
S-Easterners HATE his guts.
He LOST Lagos and Osun state last time.

The S-Southerners were wishy-washy and supported anybody and everybody.

But his actions TODAY will succeed in UNITING the SS against him.

He's putting soldiers in the SECOND-LARGEST economy in Nigeria and the most POWERFUL and POPULOUS state in the South-South.

It's STUPID!

Especially when you consider the fact that Nigerian Soldiers are a bunch of INCOMPETENT and MALICIOUS ghouls with a hard-on for DEFENSELESS civilians.

They'll HARASS and KILL innocent people and the South-South will NEVER forget that.

Meantime, the SW stands ALONE.
The Yorubas have NO allies.

Tinubu is a MONUMENTAL disaster!
I hate when inconsequential people get opinionated over what they are absolutely neophytes about..Someone takes a decision based on a larger scale but you are talking about politics and reelection..Nigerian are just too docile... if they do it you complain if they dont u complain...check my posts on this forum from Gej to Buahri you will hardly see me attack them on their doings...

however, you think you are wise but Tinubu who has the security details of every state first hand is not wise...in fact most of you are rats with phones and internet

With this move, Wike will know the president is not joking.

The president has done the right thing
The move was already plotted with Wike.

Wike has nothing to worry about. Even if he's suspended, it's just to pacify the media and populace.

Tinubu just did 2 things. He just saved Fubara from impeachment and he just made funds available to pay salaries. With a sole administrator and emergency rule, funds can be released.

Shallow people won’t realize this is a genius move.

Lol…fubara played into their hands
No he didn't, they are all out to mess up his tenure, it is by grace he lasted up to this time, they had wanted to impeach him
Re: Tinubu Appoints Vice Admiral Ibokette Ibas As Rivers Administrator by juliuscaesar(m): 8:33pm On Mar 18, 2025
Mark my words on this day...... Tinubu will do only one term as president. He has.clearly shown that he is biased. If he had suspended Wike as FCT minister, people would praise him for courage and fairness. Instead, he will have governors in other states worried about this high handedness and overreach from the president. Maybe, just maybe the governors will feel they are better off woth BAT doing only one term. He has just given ammunition to his opponents. He obviously has lost the Ijaw votes. It will even get worse if soldiers posted to Rivers kill any Ijaw citizens. We are slowly going back to the political era of the early 2000s.

Trust me, this will cause lasting enmity between the ijaw and ikwere tribes in Rivers state
Why should he suspend Wike? A governor that cant handle a problem in his state is not fit...do most of you even think?Fubara worked with Wike directly for years and he knows the kind of person that he is... He started his fight very early. it is not everyone that one works with....

My uncle once rejected to be an SA to a gov he said he couldnt work with him..

Story!!!

Tinubu is the president till 2031 take it or leave it.

Stop crying if our brother Gej can declared such during his tenure in one Northern state so why can't Tinubu did likewise?

Too late for your rant.

All I have to say is that democracy is not for the black man. Every black president sees him self like a demi God..
democracy will continue to fail woefully in Africa..
Black leaders are dictators with totalitarian regimes..
Democracy is not for the black man but the black man didn’t use power that was not within the constitution..if you have not read the constitution go and do so!!

Suspend Wike for not performing in his ministerial function or what? Was or is there any crisis in his fct where he is governing ? Many of you allow your emotion to control your Head. We told Fubara to caution his level of political competition fight . Now who lost ?
How did this SOE favor Wike and his political stooges in Rivers State? You don't know what this incident will cause in your state.Just watch and see.Wike was imposed to the Rivers State people by GEJ and his wife, did they control him during his tenure? Why is he disturbing Fubara? You should not support evil,it doesn't favor anyone.
