Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has on Saturday, condemned an alleged plan by the Transportation Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, to discredit him, who is due to receive The Sun Newspaper Most Outstanding Best Performing Governor Award, on Saturday.
He revealed that Amaechi and President Muhammadu Buhari’s kitchen cabinet, want to use the occasion of the burial of the late State Commissioner of Police, Francis Odesanya, to carry out the alleged dastardly act.
Wike, through the Rivers Elders Consultative Council, described the planned act as, “childish, callous, mischievous, and above all, petty”.
The statement signed by the Executive Secretary of the Elders Consultative Council, Tonye Granville, said it was worrisome that all the efforts of the government to work for a united, peaceful, and progressive Rivers State, had failed, because of the atrocities of Amaechi.
The Elders recalled, that just a few days ago during the State visit of Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, the Transportation Minister had organised a parallel stakeholders’ meeting, after the entire State had one in honour of the visiting President.
They used the opportunity to advise the Minister, to stop the attitude of mischief, aimed at wanting to pull the State down, and to stop chasing the shadow of Wike.
The Elders warned that the leaders and people of the State would no longer tolerate what they described as, “mischief, hatred, and wickedness”, from any Rivers son, no matter how highly placed, as “enough is enough”.
