Dear Gov wike...just because the FG refused to give Rivers state any covid-19 grants or bails or watever doesnt mean people in Rivers state especially Port Harcourt should suffer and die of hunger...since you've confirmed that the index case is now negative...why not tightened the borders, open the markets and send those useless ikwerre boys to monitor and regulate the prices of food items in the market??...I watched your broadcast last nite...it sounded as stupid as the way you put on ur facial mask...Its high time you get some good advisers and leave this one man band show..thanks 1 Like |

he is trying to make you understand that whatever affects Rivers state or other southern states like delta and bayelsa will shake the entire country at least in the short run since the entire country is dependent on oil to survive just the same way the country will shake if Lagos has problem 1 Like |

mfm04622: No one is saying give the same amount to other States. In the bolded, you are talking of amount. In this case the FG is giving no money to other States when these States have to take measures to prevent a spread of the virus. Rivers State is on Lockdown. Rivers State needs palliatives to keep it going. Rivers State needs to have structure o ground in case of an outbreak. Rivers State needs testing centres in case to check for possible spread and track. Giving no money to other States is ridiculous. |

If it were possible to transfer every pressure and anxiety Lagos State is getting now to governor Wike and scale the amount to even N20 billion naira, Lagos State would gladly do that without hesitating. Governor Wike should be mature enough to understand the situation at hand rather than playing politics with corona virus. No wonder even individuals and cooperate organization are finding it difficult to contribute to the Rivers State government significantly on COVID-19 because of the character of the governor. Individuals and cooperate organization are donating greatly to the Lagos State government. Wike should put his house in order. Odogwu999: 1 Like |

Laslaslala: The FG wasn't irresponsible, that was what he wanted. He needed the virus to enter Nigeria so that it can open an avenue to embezzle money and it is doing justice to that right now not minding that some of its citizens will die in the process. Well they are just collateral damages. U can imagine allowing someone from Italy which was high on the list into your country b4 shutting down d airspace n border. N what wine is only saying is that all 36 states should be given some money in helping to curtail the situation but priorities will be given to those States with higher numbers. Prevention is better than cure |

It has nothing to do with politics for Lagos State to have got such a huge amount of money neither has it got to do with the financial strength of Lagos State. As at this morning, Lagos state already has 120 confirmed cases of Covid-19 which is approximately 51.72% of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the country. Will Wike wish Rivers State to be in d situation of Lagos n get 10b? Let's be judicious n reasonable. 2 Likes |

Macphenson:I hope you are not imagining, or insinuating that oil money from Rivers State belongs to them, all the investments pipelines, refinery, oil underneath the earth belongs to the Federal Republic of Nigeria, please Rivers State wealth is it's internally generated revenue, not statutory allocation from the Federal Government. What has wike done with the free trillion Naira Rivers State has received since 2015 from the Federal Government? Rivers State is a very poor State compared to Lagos State. Eko Oni Bake has a higher GDP than even Ghana. 1 Like |

With the way Wike is going, he may import thousands of Corona viruses patient from the US so that he can collect 10 billion. Wike is the most foolish greedy governor I have ever seen. Upon the 13 % oil revenue given to this fool of a governor he is still eyeing Lagos 10billion disaster management money. Wike doesn't care about the health status of River's people,all he cares is the 10billion that he want to embezzle. 1 Like |

Macphenson: Rivers do not need grants..they can be access on a day t day basics. If the Pandemic is contained in Lagos and does not get to rivers. What becomes of the money. You know Nigeria. Let Lagos have it l. It's not about money for now this is serious issue of pademic. Just pray it does not reach your state. |
