Stop Shielding Wike! Tension As Rivers Resident CONFRONT Tinubu, SEE What They Did That Shocked Everyone
As violence continues to escalate in Rivers State following the recent local government elections, calls for President Bola Tinubu to intervene and address the role of Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike in the unrest are growing louder. The unrest has intensified, with multiple local government secretariats set ablaze by suspected arsonists. In response, President Tinubu ordered the police to secure government offices and restore peace.
In a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu condemned the violence and urged political leaders, including Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, to exercise restraint and adhere to the rule of law. The president emphasized the importance of protecting public institutions and maintaining order. However, his failure to directly address Wike’ s alleged involvement in the state’ s ongoing unrest has sparked widespread criticism.
On social media, particularly on Twitter (now known as X), critics expressed frustration, accusing Wike of being the instigator of the violence. Many have called for Wike’ s removal from Tinubu’ s cabinet, arguing that his influence is contributing to the escalating tensions in Rivers State. One user wrote, ” Sack your Minister of FCT and see how quiet the state will be. You know who is the problem and the reason behind the violence. ”
Others criticized Tinubu’ s approach as too vague, with some accusing him of shielding Wike from accountability. ” There is a chief security officer in Rivers State; let him do his job, but Wike’ s influence is overshadowing that, ” commented another user.
The public outcry highlights a growing concern over Wike’ s influence and its potential impact on the stability of Rivers State, with many urging President Tinubu to take stronger action before the situation deteriorates further.
