Shey I said it that the president will not be fooled by Fubara's fake pledge of allegiance. He ran to join APC thinking the president will not jettison Wike and start courting him.

Even as a human being, if you are left with not other choice and have to choose between Wike and Fubara, 90% of people will choose Wike, forget all the fake love they have been giving Fubara. None of them will agree to sign an agreement with Fubara

So why is Tinubu working with ABBA Yusuf and not Kwankwaso
Why is same Tinubu on Uba Sani's side against El-Rufai

I think the right question from your question is why is Fubara the only one in the news for fighting with his predecesor?
The 2 gentlemen you mentioned. not once did Yusuf have a public fallout with Kwankwanso up to the extent of Tinubu having to wade in. This is like the 3rd public time Tinubu has waded in.
If Sani is fighting El Rufai, he does not also go to press.
So having described those 2 personalities, it is clear to see why they will be easy to workk with. Fubara will go and see the president for help, Tinubu will then intervene and say okay do this, do that, instead of telling him there and then that this one I can do but this other one I am not sure I can do it o, he will agree to all of them and then as soon as that wind passes he will start doing something else.

Look at Yusuf that you mentioned, he waited up to 2 or 3 months to finally defect out of respect to Kwankwanso, Since his defection, I have not heard him declare himself 001 like the immature Fubara did, instead it was the party that anointed him APC leader in Kano state.

Tinubu is just playing bad politics in Rivers and his supporters will never see anything wrong in it. Tinubu still needs Wike to maneuver Rivers stage election in 2027, so he can't discard him away, and Fubara is a light and clean politician that does not fit Nigerian kind of politics.
My problem in all these is that, Nigeria as a country is on downward trains politically, we are not practicing true democracy..May God deliver Nigeria from the hands of those holding her jugular.

How can Tinubu justify the allegations that Wike is the political leader of Rivers State in spite of party affiliation? If we go by that narrative, then Wike should take a back seat and listen to Odili and Amaechi, who were governors before Wike.

As I'd always felt, Tinubu's failure to sack Wike, speaks volumes of who is orchestrating the chaos in the state, and who the eventual beneficiary is.

LagosOrigin:
Tinubu has finally thrown Wike under the bus 😂
Fubara is going for second term and tinubu has told Wike and and his rivers state assembly loyalists to forget about impeaching the governor immediately.


Fubara 5

Wike 1

Comprehension is your problem

OLOKOESHIN:
So daft indeed
Read with open mind

More than daft indeed

Once U are out as a governor, U are out,
U don't have any gaddem right over the new governor,
The present governor has every right,
Weather U helped put him there or not,
Do U know how many millitary presidents of Nigeria that has other backs of other military armies?
U think Buhari as millitary overthrowned the president in the 80s all by himself?
Did Babangida overthrown Buhari all by himself?
Did Abacha overthrow Babangida by himself
Did Those that helped them in overthrowing head of state claim god father?
Wike should rest with his nonsense abeg

AMI3:
Base on your logic.
I want to asked, Akpabio brought ex- governor Udom Emmanuel into politics and Udom was Akpabio successor, Akpabio later decamped to APC and Udom remained in PDP.
Now are u telling me that Akpabio was PDP leader despite being in APC or Udom was the leader?

Please answer me that question.
Thank u

Udom was the leader of the party in the State but the hierarchy of the structure Akpabio used to make Udom the governor still places Akpabio ahead of him in the political scheme of things.

The hierarchy could have stop Udom second term or the state assembly could have stopped Udom second since Udom was not in good terms with Akpabio.
The hierarchy could have not allowed Christopher Ekpeyong to be the senator representing Ikot ekpene constituency.

Bros u are only a leader in ur own political party.

I disagree with you on this. Not all leaders will choose to bite if the puppet rebel against the benefactor. Some leaders will just see it as human acts and move on, provided it's not affecting their own future political ambitions in any way.

Look at Wike, he has a presidential ambition. So, he needs a hold on his home political space, the opportunity his puppet has denied him off, and that is why he's fighting to retain that influence. In the case of Lagos, the doings of Ambode was not affecting the leadership in any way because Lagos has a structure that produces the candidates and the structure is there till tomorrow. They call the shots and decide what happens in Lagos politics. The hierarchy of that structure never places the governor ahead of his benefactor in any way, not even when the governor is the party leader (001 as claimed by Fubara) in the state. So, remember he was denied the second term ticket.

The moral of my story is that you don't bite the finger that fed you. If you can not stay loyal, don't accept political offers.

Yeah I will agree the last statement but know that south South system of politics are not the same with south west.
Every region has their own system of politics.
If Wike is trying to introduce "godfatherism" in River State I don't think it will work because he doing all these because he has the backing of the presidency.

Nobody control him when he was the governor or he didn't signed any agreement with anybody.
Let him focus on his assignment. He has stepped on so many toes

I think what Wike lacks is the structure! Yes! No structure was constituted to administer all this. And remember, a tree doesn't make a forest. Wike can not do this as a one man mopol and that is why it's a bit difficult for him to punish Fubara as he would love to.

Remember there was an intervention from the federal level during Ambode's political struggle but it was not a one man decision. So, upturning the verdict became impossible. I just believe that Rivers is not there yet. If Rivers must get there, they must first converge and organize themselves and forget what happens at the center. Rivers has money, they can take care of themselves and can grow to Lagos level of politics.

I'm not advising (I don't even have the audacity). And I'm not into politics in any way but just airing my own personal opinion.

In whatever you do always remember "Agreement is AGREEMENT".

If you no like the Agreement resign and start again.

Una Good Morning ooo.

Agreement to plunder the state resources?

It’s good the president intervenes.. the two men should shelve their differences for the good of Rivers state
