All this wahala, you call it a greedy godfather.

The most greedy godfather in the history of Nigeria, I dare say!

We have had very many godfathers in recent times; Adams Oshiomole, Nasir El Rufai, George Akume, Udom Emmanuel, Seriake Dickson, Kashim Shetima, even Bola Tinubu himself..

Never have we heard that a godfather chose a CSO (Chief Security Officer) for his successor..
How do you make your successor inherit your own CSO?
Who does that?

Not only that, he chose;

Deputy Governor
Chief of Staff
SSG
All 32 Assembly members
All 19 commissioners but one
All LGA chairmen

Haba!

He most definitely did not anoint Fubara because he loved him the most.
He obviously anointed him because he saw in him a yes man, a stooge, the "mumu", who could never muster the courage to challenge his authority,
Through whom he could actualize his third term bid, and maintain control of the state for another 8 years...


Many would ask the question; why did Sim accept the position if he knew he couldn't do it?

I bet Sim couldn't have known everything he was going to be subjected to eventually..

For instance there was no way Sim could have imagined that he would be forced to accept all commissioners, inherit a Chief Security Officer, forced to accept an SSG and a Chief of Staff;; afterall most of these appointments come after swearing in and settling in.

And what about all the financial obligations??
Who says bigger demands were not made?

When we all woke up to the attempted impeachment of Fubara on the morning of 31st October 2024, Sim posed a question;;

"What did I do to warrant this impeachment? I challenge you to tell the world"

Of course no response came,,
No response could come until months later when they came with a afterthought that Sim himself tried to impeach Martin Amaehule...

Lol..a story only for the minds of idiots to ponder...

How does Sim try to impeach Amaehule only 5 months in power?

At that point he didn't even have 1 single assembly member to his side,(Edison had barely joined him),
he didn't have any LGA chairman, he didn't have any commissioner on his side.

Infact he was still alone and he tried to impeach Martin Amaehule?

grin grin

Las Las, Tinubu knew the solution to this problem,, but Tinubu himself is an interested party..
But he sold the world a dummy, playing a make-belief that he was a neutral on looker.. grin

At the end of the day, all Sim supporters can be proud, he didn't bow and cow like some other governor did to a Lagos godfather.

He stood up to a big bully, greedy godfather, who needed an SOE declaration from a commander in chief to save face!

Wike paid apologists . If all elders like Goodluck Johnathan that everyone knows as a peaceful man takes side with Fubara , and all reasonable elders with him , does that not tell you that Wike is the one on the wrong side , and he is still hell-bent in having his way as the only criteria for peace, and you expect them to accept? It won't work
You really don't know what is happening other than the facial expressions of people who are full of hypocrisy......

The former presidents' home State is in darkness for more than 6 months and nothing absolutely is been done thats significant.

About three or thereabout northern states did not have electricity for just 3 days and PBAT was aware and he gave a firing order and that light was fixed sharply.


Do you really think this so called Ijaw elders and leaders have the interest of the people or it's just how to get their fill of the treasury any means necessary......

Wike will be laughing at them because many feel they are better than him and are just jealous of his achievements which they had dreamed but he is going places.....

Was he not the one who went to solicit the assistance of PBAT?

Then at the end how far? Wise elders look at who owe the ace before making move. Can you see what US did in Russia and Ukraine crisis? Trump immediately saw that Russia can't be defeated and immediately told Ukraine to sign a deal. That is what wise people do. It is not by emotion. It is by who have the power. If Wike contest today to me the governor of Bayelsa if the constitution permits he will win.

The only solution to this bruhaha is for one person to give way for another.....Wike wants to remain and rule after 8 years which will not be possible and Fubara has tasted POWER and will not be willing to be another person's house boy. Afterall even Obj and Atiku still have their issues till today.
The option open to Fubara now is to resign.. This is politics. FOFA. Wike won't forgive Fubara. If Fubara could do this as an inexperienced politician fear what he can do when he gains ground. Fubara is gone simple. The house will never agree with him. Wike doesn't mind have another Ijaw to complete Fubara term..This can be done by making an Ijaw son the speaker of the house. And immediately he is sworn in as the governor Amaewhule goes back to his role. This is case close.

lol. A lot of you sound laughable. So Jonathan is envious of Wike? I think you are high on drugs. The same wike himself is not happy about the State of emergency. Or you think it is to his favour? No. How can you demand 6b from state allocation every month and you expect the governor to comply? Only a mentally deranged individual will be against Fubara. Fubara and the elders stood for what is right, no one man can control the destiny of a whole state. You can support your own state governor to do same, but allow those with sense reject such evil

Your entire write up is purely borne out of emotions and sentiments.

You clearly mentioned purported godfathers and you're trying to liken them to Wike alongside their predecessors...
You will keep getting it wrong and blaming PBAT who had nothing to do with what both men had in agreement...!!!!

Since you want PBAT to favour Gov. Fubara eve though PBAT was not a witness to whatever agreement Wike and Fubara had or whatever or you want PBAT to interfer in Rivers State politics.....

Now, if PBAT had taken sides with Gov. Fubara since that is what you want him to do since it is what you would have done.....

Even POBJ even have Gov. Fubara an advice which got me laughed because POBJ has forgotten what he was as president did to certain State governors who were against him or in his black book....


Now, if PBAT had sided with Fubara, would PBAT have the guts to tell Wike that which he told him during his birthday celebration about Wike not using the ministerial appointment to work against the APC !!!!!!

Asari was even worst, threatening fire and brimstone instead of allowing a political solution .
Politics is politics irrespective of tribe or race and when an issue arises it is better to use political dialogue so we don't end up like Sudan , South Sudan , CAR , Congo etc
When Fubara was making fighting it wasn't about Wike but Rivers State House of Assembly members which comprises of Ikwerri , Ogoni , Ijaw , Etche , Ahoada , Ogba Egbema etc Wike got involved as there Leader after they Assembly members reported Fubara to him Wike. The rest is pepper and salt

I agree with you. Afterall, "agreement is agreement" as may have been signed between Wike and Fubara. But despite the fact that Wike has been Governor of Rivers State from 2015 to 2023 and is currently serving as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, he has taken this fight to another level which wont favour him. Chief Wike is my learned senior, and as a well educated man, I least expected him to make comments where he tagged the Ijaws as “the minority of the minorities” in the Niger Delta. If history serves me well, the Ijaws are majority ethnic group in the Niger Delta. We are well represented in Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom and a sprinkling in Cross River State. Now there is a deep grumblings by labelling us as being a "lame duck" tribe. Let his fight be between him and Fubara and not to dragg us into this. Wisdom is profitable to direct.
