But wait is it even constitutional for a sole administrator of a state to conduct local government elections?

Power is transient,🤲 Wike will be the one helpless one day.

Also, Fubara is not a holy man in all these

callthefred:
Obidients and Atiku are those who messed Fubara up. Bunch of terrible selfish leaders. They only care about themselves. They led Fubara on and discarded him when it mattered most.

You can imagine how Wike fought to ensure his boys return to loot the state, that's some leadership. Wike doesn't need those council funds but he knows what it means for your boys to be happy and they will die for you anytime anyday. Fubara was misled. Even Fubara alone tried but immediately he allowed Obi and Obidients and Atiku to put mouth for his case, he lost his guard.

Simi na man you be no doubt.

See poverty is a tool in the hands of politicians

Illiteracy is also one of their greatest tool

Any successful politician must be able to use these two tools effectively

Only those who master it, wins

Which state are you from? Don't put your mouth in Rivers mstters again if you don't hv reasonable thing to say. You are watching democracy being bartered yet u give credence to it. Is that a normal thing?

creativejagaban:
Fubara allowed emergency lovers and developers to deceive him. He learnt his lesson very late....but it is better late than never.

Politics is not for the faint hearted. And you need to play it well. You need to understand the laws of power to play it.

That's why fubara and obi lienus are not so different from each other.

Obi lienus always want to project himself to us everyday by coming to X to spit fake news - he violated many laws of power. Many other presidential candidates did not behave this way.

Fubara too initially was grandstanding and issuing out abuses against wike and was always prodded on by the mob. Today, he knows better.

Was ambode impact in lagos not better than tinubu ?
Your excuse is silly . Nigeria politics dont consider performance .

My blame for fubara is the weak and indecisive pdp that allowed fubara to be hanged .

AMINDA:
What good is structure if the people are not with you? The people of Rivers State boycotted yesterday's election in a clear message to Wike and Tinubu. You can't buy love neither can you copy respect.

With Fubara and his men abstaining from yesterday's election, the peace between Wike and Fubara is akin to that of a graveyard. Tinubu still has his work cut out for him in the Southsouth.

creativejagaban:
Ahahahah. That's their kind of job. Even NBA collect money from fubara too

destinychildolu:
Tinubu will suffer from this in 2027. Even if they rig rivers state, he won't get more than 200k votes. I believe the governor will also spoil his chances.

..this creatures think they will grab power for ever..your time is nigh..make haste..

Fubara miscalculated, his government would have been far more positively impartful than Wike's because that was Wike's intention of making him Governor so that he will be supported by his influence as a right hand man of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. But, Fubara ended up befriend the politicians who are enemies of the people of Rivers State.

There is no doubt that the people of Rivers State see Wike as a man of honor and majority are very loyal to him.

Wike is indeed a FIELD MARSHAL in Nigeria's politics. He under studies every battle and knows how to win.

I hope Fubara has learnt his lessons. If he likes he should return to his old ways of being unreasonable. He will be checkmated by from every corner.

casualobserver:
You see I always wonder when people come on platforms and say the X people or the Y people are not happy with Z. Then elections come and the X people and the Y people vote for Z.

To me it says either The people commenting are not in touch with the grassroots and it is not the people that are unhappy but the commentators.
I am not from Rivers and I don’t want to interfere or comment on Rivers affairs, my comment is a general one because I hear a lot of comments on Nairaland and other media with people usually Obidients saying “Nigerians are this”, “Nigerians are that”. It brings me back to something I always preach: Educated Nigerians who are the demographic that tend to make these comments, represent only 10% of the population. How many of them are in touch with the other 90%?

Law number one, Never outshine the master.

Always make those above you feel comfortably superior. In your desire to please and impress them, do not go too far in displaying your talents or you might accomplish the opposite—inspire fear and insecurity. Make your masters appear more brilliant than they are and you will attain the heights of power.

Is there any law that says he cannot?

Try and get to read the powers conferred on him by PBAT when he was made sole administrator. It's within his limits.
Anyone not in support should take the National Assembly to court for letting PBAT do such.



Even that statement made by VP Shettima about the the President doesn't have the powers to suspend a State governor is somewhat controversial.......Reason....

Whatever happened in Borno State when Shettima was State Governor during PGEJ administration is completely different from the issues that occured in Rivers State.

The case of Rivers State has a State Governor having two different State Assembly headed by two different speakers.
Those on the side of the Fubara are just four members including his Speaker as recognize him. Those against him are seventeen including the Speaker.

So with this we have to be told which of the houses/gatherings is the legitimate for passing of budgets and screening of commissioners nominees to be appointed and others which falls under the purview of the State Assembly.


The courts has done justice to that and the rest is history.

Donake:
Are you suggesting we all go to our state of nature since your lord and personal savior and his masters does same? Can you and your co-travellers work with a document as simple as the grandnorm(constitution) where it gallantly empowers the president to "suspend" all elected officials In a state? If that is an ideology in politics then you are not better than the first men.
