Did they not serve out their two tenures?
Who in your lineage can match Okowa's record -
a formal LG chairman
a two-time commissioner
a former SSG
a former Senator
a two-time Guv'nor
a VP Aspirant
an accomplished Medical Doc.
Even your Lord Wike who never had a single brief as a lawyer can't match him.

See Mumu talk o!
You see why these Social Media gaulibles audiences, can't add to the GDP?
-IS THIS NOT YOUR OKOWA,THAT THE ANTI-GRAFT IS LODGING COMPLAINTS OF NTrillions Naira- Missing - during his era as a governor and here you are speaking baldadash as Achievements?
Are you aware he is alledgely building Private Institution and through which Money 🤑 ?
Ok, no wander Your State is Poor, despite the Humongous NBILLIONS Money being Collected from Federation Accounts- on quarterly basis- for 8yrs?
So we have those who now share them here!
Radarada.Just face Truth and Facts!

Wike can enter any state in Nigeria. No governor is given such a power in the constitution to bar anyone from entering their state. If Diri is begging for a State of Emergency, he should let us know. This is the same meddlesome interloper that worsened the crisis in Rivers State with their Fubara is Ijaw nonsense. Incompetent governor. Now the coward is afraid of a man like him entering his state. Seek legal advice now and retrace your steps before it is too late.

Robot
May thunder short circuit your control panel there!!!!
Let him visit the state of that idiot operating you

Oga easy na
Haba!!

This has to be the comment of the year for me

He can't ban him. Who is he to ban him.

Do you think most igbos love okp*lor eyes and many around him, but people can't just ban anybody or anything, without due process.

Greenfusion:
them go teargas them...na simple thing, e go need use face mask take sing

Not if he ARRANJE himself with CP before landing.

kettykin:
This is a real dangerous precedence, what happens if Wike bans the Governor from entering FCT, this will bring about some issues

Unfortunately Wike cannot do that. Wike served as the representative of the President, in his capacity as the minister. The President is the Governor of the FCT.

Again, the FCT is the administrative capital of the FG. The seat of power and the official residential area of the President. Can Wike stop Diri from visiting the President?

The mentality that keeps Nigeria underdeveloped. Okowa can't dust Wike's feet, so stop celebrating incompetence. What did Okowa do in Delta State? Some of you are just shameless. Just like this Diri.

Salewa97:
Wike will be fine. He knows the game.

This is just a temporary ban, he will be back in Bayelsa soon.

this idiot is a product of motivational speakers and lack personal wisdom. No point of arguing with you till you get sense

Sonnobax15:

Imagine being rejected by your own people . E be like say Wike downfall go too loud and it will likely start from here,his own South/south...

Too bad

People? U go school at all? When did one person become people? People wanted to host him but just one person is using his position of authority to block him. Let's see if the gov can actually pull this one off

ruggedtimi:
what if Wike ban Douye diri from entering Abuja

He gave a concrete reason for Wike ban

Enwhen:
You supporting rubbish, it's Bayelsa
His PPA ? ... at the long run, its you that would suffer it ...they already save for their generation.
assuming your Baba save for you , u for no dey support rubbish on naraland for your daily bread

You are the one supporting rubbish and nonsense. He's a Nigerian first, then a serving minister, he's free to go anywhere in Nigeria

press9jatv:
Good directives from Bayelsa State governor

What if Wike come for an official federal government assignment?

Would governor directive valid against federal government assignment in his state?

Dspsalvate:
No freedom of movement again or waiting?

Their matter tire me o! But come think of it, their traditional form of punishment is also banishement

Cajal:
They will still dine and wine together in future

Don't be deceived it's all politics

...Diri is still in pain having lost out at the recently concluded PDP SS ZONAL CONGRESS

The south south PDP zonal congress will be held next month

Wike gets his first anti-social behaviour order (ASBO) in Bayelsa state.

Who is going to enforce this restriction? The IG of Police?

The Minister is the "governor" of the FCT, not the president. If we were to follow Diri's precedent, then Wike can also bar him. However, this is just playing around. Diri has no power to stop Wike or anyone from entering Bayelsa. The governor of any state in Nigeria is not Louis XIV. This is the type of nonsense his Ijaw brother Fubara was doing that made the Supreme Court refer to him as a despot. Stop begging for a state of emergency.

shortgun:

Who dash monkey banana.
Don't ever compare the Governor of a state with a minister. The minister doesn't have such powers

Wike will enter Bayelsa state or any other state for that matter anytime he wants

Constitutionally you don't have any right to declare anyone Persona Non Grata . The freedom of association and movement is stated clearly.

hotseat:
One wonders whether Governor Diri has the constitutional right to ban any individual let alone the FCT Minister from entering the State.


This is how trouble begins!


Diri should instead provide security by ensuring that Wike's visit is devoid of any chaos as the Chief Security Officer (CSO) of the State of Bayelsa.


One doubts if Fubara were to visit the State, he would equally be declared a persona non grata.


Diri is expected to demonstrate a high sense of neurality instead of apparently taking sides.




@hotseat

Why will she not take side when the president is taking side

shortgun:

Even the Governor lacks the power to ban any bonafide citizen of this country to enter any part of Nigeria, except the Courts have declared such a person a threat to the peace of the state.

yemmit90:

official assignment is different from organizing rally here. Read the details

bixton:
Gov. Douye Diri should be planning onhow he wiell finish his tenure rather than saying this.
The game of politics is changing with a flow like never before.

When Wike gifted you monies to renovate your law school you didn't know he was a man who likes trouble!!!!
Well being governor of a your State doesn't mean the Minister wouldn't enter the State. The position of the Minister of FCT is completely equivalent of a State Governor.
Your calling the attention of the security agencies to be on alert is of no use now even if you are the chief security officer of the State because there's absolutely freedom of movement as constituted by law as long as the individual abides withiin the confines of the law and more so note that this entry by the FCT is also approved by PBAT and the FG then you Gov. Diri should know that the Minister is coming with his own special security detail and personnel for the purpose of this mega rally and of anyone makes trouble they will be caught and dealt with seriously.
So it's of good worth to let you know that it's in your best interest now as things are that you inform your supporters and others to not go and interrupt the activities of the Minister till he is gone.

A word is enough for the wise.
Let no one deceive you Gov. Diri.
Let this issue pass by in peace and don't make a mountain out of a mole.

The governor can stop him from using the venue Cox it's a state facility .I don't know if he has the powers to prevent him from entering the state

Unfortunately you do not seem to know that the Minister is only in his role as a minister, or an administrative head. The FCT is not like the states of Nigeria, which are headed by elected Governors. It is administered by the Federal Capital Territory Administration, headed by the minister, in this case Wike, who is appointed by the President. It has only one elected Senator, in the name of Mrs. Ireti Kingibe of the Labour Party. If you do not know this very basic, I do not know how to help. There is a difference between an appointees and an elected person. Tinubu can choose to fire Wike any moment, but he cannot firmer Ireti Kingibe, neither can he fire Diri.

I do not understand how Fubara became a despot. Where you not in this country before and after his election as the Governor? Or are you simply following the crowd, not taking your time to understand deeply what the matter is.

If you call Fubara a dexpor, what do you want to term Wike? A lamb?

He didn't ban Wike from entering bayelsa
He banned any form of rally or party for him

Bluntemperor:
Some of you cannot even read between the lines, because of your bias,hate and yellow jaundice.
Wike is Not from Bayelsa but Rivers State,so distinguish between the two South- South States.
If Wike no go Bayelsa because of what the Governor said' some people wants to forment troubles but he is still a Honourable Son of the South - South and because of Una elections loss two years ago,rest this bitterness,na!

He is a betrayal of the south south region.

Zionmdde:
Why can't that idiot keep his ass one place. You insult a tribe and still want to go there and cause problems.

He knows the region that loves him most, let him go there and leave Ijaw land alone

Which region?

With his present behaviour, guess it will be difficult to say

Dspsalvate:
No freedom of movement again or waiting?

He can possibly enter like everyplace other citizen, but will he want that

What I mean is that he may enter, but no security privileges and clearing road for him

Leonardo4:

They can find other alternatives of places to use.
He can't prevent him from entering though without a proper proof to the security agencies that he is a security threat and we all know that won't hold any ground.
Also he is in the list of outgoing governor I don't think any security head now will want to take sides with him on such petty thing. It's just a political rally of their party even if it's a factional one.

One day you might be delivered

If you don't understand the laws and political structure of this country, simply shut up. The Minister of the FCT is not like every other Minister. I put the word "governor" in quote for a reason. That you can't understand why shows how clueless you are. Was it Tinubu that revoked the land titles in the FCT? Why is the Minister's consent sought in Land transactions? Coconut head.

Fubara is a despot because he governed Rivers State without any regard for the constitution. Don't bring your silly emotions into our legal system.

Salewa97:

There is no ban. There can never be. He will enter Bayelsa if he wants to.
