He may defect to NDC, his blood brother got the governorship ticket in NDC. Fubara knows what he's doing.

You see your brain. U don't even know about Electoral laws.
Nobody can defect any more . That window has closed.
You must be one of Obidients because they just shout and insult people on the internet. They know nothing.

You didn't know who is jagaban, now u will understand that gradually the right things are being done in political space. He has locked the usual decamping after primary by amendment of electoral act which is reasonable. Why jumping up and down, stay put and support who ever wins d primary.

braveboi4life:
He should have come and learn from the Benue State Governor how the game is played

The father brain strong like fufu no be lie

Ofunaofu:
Why then did he decamp to APC

Stupid obstinacy. Act first think later tendencies.

Saladdin:
His political career is completely finished. Na true SIMP this man be. This is what indecision cost him. He had to two options: fight to the finish or quietly do your "yes sir, yes sir" and complete your eight years. Political fights are all or nothing, you don't do half-measure.

Duncan Mighty's music career too is gone. He should forget any singing gig from the state government again. Doing useless praise singing for a weak man. You see how Wike pampers his praise singers, they most likely even followed him to Abuja singing Nye demba, Nye demba for him.

If you wanted to fight your godfather (which was a bad decision anyway), you ought to have gone for the jugular, but you went halfway and backtracked. A very foolish move!

That was weakness and Wike smelt it. Wike is a very formidable and powerful politician & godfather with a well-oiled machinery that can easily bring down this governor. He knows where and how to pull the strings. When Fubara knows he can't fight, he ought to have piped low, because those elders who crafted the quote that when you dine with the devil, you use a long spoon. They came to that painful realization after lots of hard knocks.

On the other hand, you Fubara had one of the largest and deepest war chest in Nigeria. For God's sake, only Lagos, Delta and maybe Kano comes close to what this man has when it comes to state fund. This singular reason plus Wike's ruthlessness gained the president's respect. Tinubu himself respects a ruthless person who is not afraid of showing it at any time.

You could use that to compensate for your weaknesses and let money FLOW to the right places, surgically dismantle the machinery as swiftly as possible. And had he fought bravely, he clearly had the people's support and wherever he goes most Riverians will follow.

Create a state security apparatus, let the commanders be loyal to you and when election comes, release one long press statement on how those state-security officials need to be present in every polling unit. Then you buy permissible arms, tasers and handcuffs for them. FUND them well, cover every inch of the state that day, switch off your phone while the security outfit fo their job. Then give a publicly announced and firm instruction that whoever engages in malpractice would be arrested, locked up and tried. Then you clearly demonstrate it with the LG election.

Follow this up by lobbying to get officials from two or three major countries to specifically come to Rivers to monitor the election! While at this, ensure you pay for sufficient media time in international broadcasting stations let it be aired, and make sure all your ex-Ogas shady file is with you, and have CC'ed the right quarters with copies of it.

While you do this, move to another party, fund it, sponsor candidates and make a public example of few people who fall out of line, then you would see as others will fall in line.

Then even if Wike won, it would have be a pyrrhic for him. But as it is now, the Emperor of Rivers has won and he will so deal with you on all fronts. Be grateful if you don't do jail time!

All these your long narration sha...just one order from the President declaring a state of emergency watered down all these your narration. You people still don't know the power of presidency and the limitation of governors. Seyi Makinde can't even arm Amotekun with AK-47 all because of some archaic federal provision.

Is wike the owner of rivers state

It’s now obvious that this guy has some people pushing him against Wike when he personally does not have the mind to face him.

Yall are quick to blame fubara ! You see 34 governors aligned with tinubu by force and you want fubara only to fight tinubu . We all know why tinubu can’t betray wike ! E easy make person help you rig election make you run abandon am ?

Have you seen any governor successfully fight tinubu . Even abia and anambra governor who didn’t join apc are busy shouting his mandate they shall stand ! Ask urself why ?
So you want the man to forcefully fight tinubu alone
Seeing how tinubu locked up his old ally Elrufai like a goat .
Now imagine what tinubu will use to fight fubara .. .

You can see how many law makers and ministers, deputy gov , govs , lost election bid for house and senate . Give the man a break !
Let fubara rest pls ! He has tried ..

What an excuse for one placed all the while on cruise drive. The man is thoroughly empty upstairs when it comes to political and life strategy. Wike identified him as suitable for a test drive but Wike’s enemy got to him first and had him crashed!

Dem don finally push this man into political grave. Wey all dem Ugochinere, falana and co? Nonsense, he for go disgrace himself for the primary, thank God sense don return for his head to throw in the towel.

Apc, tinubu, wike don run fubara street,shai🙆🏼

Ofunaofu:

Like don see this man finish. He's never wike's March else, the barking dog would have been pushed aside by now. He should come to NDC now that it's still good cos once they impeach him, that's the end

What do you want the man to do ? The only reason Wike successfully fought Amaechi was because Jonathan didn’t back amaechi like how tinubu is backing Wike for helping him rig election in rivers that made him president .
Fubara made a big error ! You don’t fiight who president is directly backing . If not that , there’s no minister that can fight a governor .
Wike is just lucky .
Take Kano as a test drive and kaduna ! Why didn’t the governors over there get in problem when they went against their predecessors who put them there !
Didn’t the current governor betray elrufai
Didn’t the current Kano governor betray kwankaso.
Didn’t they Survive ?
They survived because their predecessors do not have a direct relationship with tinubu anymore.
That’s why !!!

Gotocourt:
Wike don finish this one.

See the way Governor Inuwa of Gombe pocket Senator Goje , Men with balls of steel

Fubara was terrlbly worsted by Wike!!! What a shame!

QuantAnalyst:
You are very funny That goat part really got me lol

Yes the same elrufai that helped tinubu secure the northern support o . He is locked up like a goat in dss custody now for months .

Politicstoday:
Fubara is highly a coward like Ambode

Typing from.your coven because you hqve never been to even a political campaign

Politicstoday:
not only that, he should learn from Obaseki

You guys are very far away from the happening in the polity. Obaseki succeeded because he was backed by Buhari and the then canals to tame Oshiomole and Tinubu. You guys should learn how Nigerian politics is being played otherwise you'll keep complaining [I'm not talking in part of leadership but politics] of injustice.

To bite this mugu just dey hungry me 😎

“Don’t see more than you are supposed to see. The moment you begin to see more than you are supposed to see, you will see spirit. I know Wike. Fubara don finally see spirit 🏃🏃🏃

Don't allow the mofos. The man is already in his knees and they want him inside the grave. D. Elliot after all the strong head withdrew today.

Parachoko:
If he contest he will lose

Better than not to try at all.
Ppppp
Better still let him decamp to another party.
People will not trust him. People stake so much. There are those that was waiting for him to make a step he fail them.

Freshtruth:
The only way now is for Mr briggs of NDC to step down for him

Is he (Fubara) a member of NDC before the submission of membership register to INEC? Make una dey try follow update nah

Ofunaofu:
Why then did he decamp to APC

That was his greatest mistake.

This was inevitable

Like someone said, maybe he ought to have waited till his second term before rebelling against Wike, but Wike's conditions and systems of control were simply too tight; even Tinubu allows his figurehead governors way more latitude in the running of Lagos State than Wike did with Fubara

you cannot compare a civil servant to a politician, wike is a crook just like tinubu he knows the game very well both the pdp and apc in river state ws already in his pocket.
as for the fool fubara he was handpicked by wike without having any political history, only to betray him in less than 2 years instead of waiting it out till the second tenure.

Politicstoday:
I’m disappointed in Fubara for withdrawing from the Rivers APC governorship primary.

He should have considered his followers and the development of Rivers State. Why make a decision that will destroy the destinies of the people who stood by you?

If you weren’t ready to defend the people who risked their lives for you, you shouldn’t have started the fight in the first place.

What now happened to people who risked their lives for you ?

Why the abandoning campaigners, ward coordinators, and grassroots members who invested time, money, and reputation with nothing to show for it.

At this stage, please kindly resign

I’m really disappointed.

Keep talking like a novice pretending like you don't know what's happening. Wike loyalists have won all the senate seats, rep seats, and even HoA seats and you're still pretending behind your keyboard

The judiciary caused all this...if they don't damage the country the yeye learned ppl won't rest.


Ppl came to t.v to renounce their party ND even tear their party card...it was live in the t.v ,u went and changed it that it's not true they changed party....

That is where wike would have fallen flat


But judiciary is compromised!

Very disappointing! Why did he now decamp to Apc and be singing " on your mandate we shall stand " knowing full well that he will not get the ticket for second tenure.

Trusting tinubu and withdrawing the lawsuit he files to those house of assembly members that decamp to Apc was his biggest mistake. Accepting tinubu peace deal seal his fate.

He should just kukuma resign as a governor. The humiliation is too much.

So does that mean Tinubu himself doesn't have a cockroach in his cupboard that can be exposed. Or all the governors are just weak men

spencekat:
Better for him. No option for him.May be if Tinubu wins in 2027 ,he will make him a minister.

what exactly woukd he contribute as a minister? Tinubu hates disloyal men especially when such individual is a weaklings. Personally, I feel sad .

Duncan Mighty's music career too is gone. He should forget any singing gig from the state government again. Doing useless praise singing for a weak man. You see how Wike pampers his praise singers, they most likely even followed him to Abuja singing Nye demba, Nye demba for him.

If you wanted to fight your godfather (which was a bad decision anyway), you ought to have gone for the jugular, but you went halfway and backtracked. A very foolish move!

That was weakness and Wike smelt it. Dem no dey us clear eyes fight for village square. Wike is a very formidable and powerful politician & godfather with a well-oiled machinery that can easily bring down this governor. He knows where and how to pull the strings. When Fubara knows he can't fight, he ought to have piped low, because those elders who crafted the quote that when you dine with the devil, you use a long spoon. They came to that painful realization after lots of hard knocks.

Then give a prior public announcement and firm instruction that whoever engages in malpractice would be arrested, locked up and tried. Then you clearly demonstrate it with the LG election. LOCK THEM UP and follow it up with a speedy court trial. The rest will be very scared to engage in any malpractice.

Follow this up by lobbying to get officials from two or three major countries to specifically come to Rivers to monitor the election! While at this, ensure you pay for sufficient media time in international broadcasting stations let it be aired, and make sure all your ex-Oga's shady files are with you, and have CC'ed the right quarters with copies of it.

Then even if Wike won, with a big IF, it would have be a pyrrhic victory for him. But as it is now, the Emperor of Rivers has won and he will so deal with you on all fronts. Be grateful if you don't do jail time!

You want him to offer Tinubu money or what? I mean how much? The point is that he'll get the ministry position from River State for choosing the path of peace.
