Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has asked the federal government to stop pretending that it was sincere about meeting the demands of EndSARS protesters to end police brutality in the country.

Governor Wike accused the federal government of paying lip service to the demands of the #EndSARS protesters by directing state governors to set up judicial panels of enquiry to investigate and identify erring police officers for prosecution.

The governor spoke in a live interview that was aired by AIT from Port Harcourt, the rivers state capital, on Friday.

The National Executive Council (NEC), which issued the directive to state governors, had said the that panels were expected to conclude the investigation within six months and report back to the federal government.

“What judicial panel of enquiry are you talking about?” Wike had said when asked to speak on it.

The governor recalled that a panel he set up two years ago to investigate SARS in Rivers State had allegedly indicted several operatives of the defunct police unit, but that the police and federal government failed to act on it because they were “playing politics”.

Wike said, “The Rivers State Government had set up a judicial panel of enquiry…most officers of SARS were indicted. We sent it to the police. Have they implemented it?

“Why? Because they were playing politics with it. Now you’re directing me again to go and set up judicial enquiry. Who is going to pay for that? Go and implement the one that was set up before…tell your police to implement the one that was set up before that indicted some of these officers.

“I don’t need to be directed. I know my job and I’ve done it two years ago, but you refused to implement it simply because you believed that SARS was working for you.”

Wike also dismissed NEC’s directive that state governors should supervise the new tactical squad that is being set up by the police to replace the defunct SARS.

He said, “You’re telling me now that governors should supervise the tactical units. When did governors become so powerful to control the police? To now begin to supervise the tactical units?

“Is it not the same governors you said would use [them] for politics that you are now telling to supervise? I did not appoint the people; the Commissioner of Police is not under me. How do I supervise.”

Wike further called on the federal government to be sincere with Nigerians if truly wants to solve the complaints about police brutality in the country.

He said, “Don’t make the public believe that you’re trying to solve the problem when you know sincerely that you’re not solving any problem. So, I cannot begin to jump up as a state governor because we have been told to do so when we know it would not work.”

The delta state governor Senator doctor Ifeanyi Okowa has swiftly created an eight man committee which will be inagurated on Monday.

The commitee which consist of notable persons from different sectors of the economy will take charge of complains and review all cases of SARS illegal killings/touture in the state.

The chairman of the commitee is Hon. Celestina Ogosi, the committee also consist of human right activist Harrison Gwannishu and Instagram influnfer Mr jolof.

This is a good development, I urge all other states to be swift in their response also so that the victims can get justice.

If you reside in delta state and you're a victim of SARS or police brutality, this is the time to speak up.

#endsars.

Hi.

My friend died around June this year and she was buried quickly. Before that, we were close pals, we weren't dating, but she was my friend, and I loved her, she loved me too. When I went through hard times she was with me. In her absence and in her presence, she sent me messages daily on how I should own the day and make it fruitful, we created memories together.

Even in my anger, she would hold me in silence, I've never experienced that kind of love from anyone, never before.

I honestly would have married her, when the time was right, I'm sure of that. The purest soul I've met.
She shared everything with me, as I did with her. And always wanted to know what went through my mind.

To the problems she couldn't solve, she held me and stayed silent.

I'm still broken till date, I cant move on, I just cant.
I still call her number to see if it would go.

How do I move on guys? It still hurts, that the only person who really loved and cared decided to leave this world.

I need your advice on how to move on. Thank you

Fvck u. When u quoted me rubbish u didn't call mods. Hypocrite and thunder

Hope I'm found now? how have you been also?

I know it's hard for ur block head to think of a new solution to ur stupid irrelevant strikes. Don't go and enrol in IPPIS now, keep waiting for old BUHARI to flinch to ur greedy demands. WEREY
[/s]

Puloc:
[s]
Oh so a whole ASUU can not come up with new ways to achieve their demands? The are still sticking to methods that have not achieved anything to their demands for decades. I thought those lectures think but no, all they do is sit back and stick to the same old methods even in their academic works. No Nigerian prof has ever invented anything serious or publish vanguard researches. All the know is copy and pastes from other foreigners work and citations. #EndASUUstrikeNow.
[/s]

Puloc:
There must always be another way ASUU to always address their grievances with the FG. Not using and wasting the destinies of the Nigerian Students all d time for wat is not their fault. We are the ones suffering not FG. #EndASUUstrikeNow

9jatriot:
Is IPPIS not about transparency?

9jatriot:
LOL @the bolded.
So that we are on the same page, let me paint a scenario for you.
Assuming you own a big company that has branches in 10 states, and each of these states have at least 2 branches in them. You noticed that you cannot be in all those places at the same time. Once in a while you discover that you pay a staff salary twice in various branches. You also discover that the bill the branches are bringing each month for salary is increasing yet you cannot remember employing any extra person since the last time you did recruitment, what would you do in this situation.

I can bet you, you will try to find a system that will not make you run mad. Assuming I come to you with a system that gives a unique number to each staff and I promise you that with this system, the era of paying one staff more than once would be gone, would you not happily embrace it?

Now assuming you tell management to implement it across all the branches, would you not be suspicious if those staff start giving excuses why they cannot use that system and instead come up with their own so called system.
Now, tell me, as the owner of this big business, would you decide to use their own system or be extra motivated to use your own system?

Puloc:
Are u asking Nugerian students to suffer forever for the sins of the Federal Govt on ASUU?

9jatriot:
How did the goal post shift? The issue is IPPIS, so I am saying if you do not like IPPIS or the lecturing job and cannot get a better job then start a business if you think it is so easy.

9jatriot:
It is probably not fair, ,but how does that relate to registering on IPPIS is what I do not understand. The combination of CBN, FIRS and NNPC cannot absorb the number of employees that universities in Nigeria employ, every body cannot be in those companies.

9jatriot:
[s]Are the not the ones presently in the system not already doing tis. What have you guys developed since your existence apart from strikes?
What is the KPI of an elected ASUU president? Ensuring that his tenure had the longest strike?

[/s]

9jatriot:
It is possible they place ads, since I am not looking out for it, I will not see it, the point I wanted to make is that, it is also possible that CBN and FIRS also put out ads, but if you are not looking out for them, you could also miss it.

I remember being invited for CBN test many years ago, this I know as much. I believe they tend to take their staffs from bank staffs now a days

Justkatty:
Introducing what the govt won't take funny if they were the ones that was given such conditions....hmmm is quite unfortunate that I happen to come from a country, that our educational system is the least they look up to. Government officials handling more than one offices, earning times ten of the people in the educational system. How can a President be a petroleum minister�, and he is also earning as a former head of state hmmmm. Now lecturers are been asked to focus on just a particular school just for them to be earning one place, why tell them to put their eggs in one basket? Nigeria my dear country.....Any lecturer that teaches in more than one school, oyo is your case, because your govt wont pay you.

9jatriot:
If una non like the job, start a business na. Shey u guys are good researchers?
Once you hear of ASUU in the news, it is for strike, never for any new innovation, never for international awards, only for strike.

Puloc:
I agree with u but do u agree with me that the strike is not in the interests or advantage of the Nigerian students too?
Pls join and trend #EndASUUstrikeNow.

shadeyinka:
I agree with you.

I don't think ASUU is saying an outright NO to IPPIS but that it should include their core areas of interest which is presently absent.

ASUU proposed an integrated payment platform that will take care of this problem but FG insists it must be IPPIS as it is or nothing.

I work in a FG research organisation and I can tell you authoritatively that we have not been able to employ staff on sabbatical or on research visits since the inception of IPPIS. To me, this is one of the things that make a university a UNIVERSITY!

9jatriot:
Professor 100k? This lie de smell.... The persons you met first hand are graduate assistants or research assistants that earn a little above 100k not professors abeg.

mamotalk:
bro calm down!

first, are you a lecturer?
if yes, I will reply you.

and if no, please leave ASUU alone.

the issue at hand is not complaint about being underpaid, so please don't stand with ASUU o.

Next0:
Do you know what it means to be a teacher and still be underpaid
If these lecturers are not wellpaid, who do you think will suffer the effect? Government or the students
I think you're the one to look well!

Freestainworld:
The professor who said they are earning only 100k should show us the evidence, let's see between ASUU and federal government who's is lying.

durasome:
OK fellow nairalanders,it should not be as if we will all times criticise our leaders even when they have got it right at some points, just want to know how it has been with power supply at your own area cause for the past say two,three months or there about there has been a tremendous improvement in power supply in my area, is it same in your area or am I the only one enjoying it? please comment I want to know.

Nazgul:
That's because we're in rainy season...there's enough water in the dam. Once dry season approaches we'd begin to experience epilithic power supply

Danzakidakura:
Seun is yet to condemn this SARS brutality to Nigeria youths who pay him. Always forming Don jazzy

Temitopemo6e6:
Good move by FG. This is commendable. Massive
employment is going on into almost all Fed Unis and MDAs to fill up gaps of ghost workers. Thanks to IPPIS. What has Asup achieved? They are busy sleeping with students. The same machines oyinbo
installed in higher institutions in 19gbogbo is what
they are still using, no invention. Students who fail
under your watch are the best abroad. The same certificate they give us and they are so proud is
not employabl in any developed country (except individual outstandin skills). Evaluate your Almighty BSc in WES and see what they will give you. Those
of us who schooled here are proud of ourselves. ASUP extended retirement age to 65 years for non teaching staff and 70 years forteaching staff, they want to die there. They are fighting for us yet they can't leave the job. ASUP is using us to expand their CV, tthey collect PTFund to study abroad, if the school they so much work on is soo good, why go abroad for MSc and PhD, do it here.
