According the news, Rivers state governor Fubara has torn down the Assembly complex!!
Over 10 bulldozers and other heavy-duty equipment were rolled out for the demolition of the House of Assembly complex on Moscow Road, Port Harcourt City Local Government Area as early as 5 a.m. on Wednesday December 13, 2023.
The demolition coincided with when the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, was presenting the state’s 2024 budget proposal to a four-member House of Assembly inside the Rivers State Government House . The Rivers State Government defended the demolition in a statement by its Commissioner for Information, Joseph Johnson,after insinuations that the demolition was a fallout of the division of the House of Assembly into two, with one faction supporting Fubara and the other faction supporting his predecessor, Nyesom Wike .
Haaaa taxpayer's money gone😭
ReplyDeleteWe want to keep enjoying a peaceful Rivers state please.
Friendship wey just start don turn situationship, the latter learn from the best.
ReplyDeleteThis is part of the reason Nigeria will never move forward, never.
ReplyDeleteOne thing people failed to understand is that, Nigeria is structured not to succeed or prosper. I learnt and noticed this long enough.
DeleteUnless the criminality structures are pull down, don't expect anything positive from this country.
There are things I would have said that's the main cause of this whole brouhaha but I don't want to get my life into trouble.
If you hear or read it, you will give Gov. Fubara a pat at the back.
@TEEJAY pls come and whisper it to me abeg you.
DeleteWow
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to him
I hope he win till the end, fear quite people
ReplyDeleteHe has won by this singular act. The people are solidly behind it.
DeleteMark this comment, even the government he's currently serving might soon get tired of him and call him to order.
When you cook for the people, they will eat and demand for more. When the people decided to cook for you, sorry is your name.
Rivers people have cooked for Port Harcourt Hitler.
Teejay,you're right. Wike is a big and bad luggage for Tinubu. This govt might soon drop him.
Deleteahn ahn .. this is extreme
ReplyDeleteDesperate times calls for desperate measures.
DeleteI was there some hours ago and see for myself what had happened. I think I will give it to the governor.
ReplyDeleteHe is fighting for his survival.
Nyesom Wike greed will consume him and his co-travellers. To think Gov. Fubara is the son of Wike's aunt, yet the ex governor couldn't let him be in office in peace.
I would have done the same if not worse to protect myself from impeachment.
Now this is the twist. Nobody will have the power to sit anywhere without the approval of the governor. A new venue can only be used after the governor had signed and opened the floor.
Those defectors should kiss their sit goodbye. Nyesom Wike fought too early and has gathered lots of enemies. I can bet anyone that, this is a fight he's not going to win. I'm afraid this doesn't get to a situation it will be seem as upland and riverine battle. Even the upland won't stand with Nyesom Wike.
I SEE YOU ARE ALREADY SUPPORTING THE SITTING GOV:::HE IS ALSO A DEVIL FOR AGREEING TO WHATEVER HE AGREED TO JUST TO HAVE POWER......YOU THINK HE HAS WON? HIS WOES JUST STARTED; HE WILL SLEEP WITH TWO EYES OPEN AND NOT BE ABLE TO RULE NORMALLY....ASIDE FROM BEING A POLITICAL FIGHT; THIS WILL TURN TO A FAMILY BATTLE WITH ALL SIDES LOSING::
DeleteI NOTICE YOU QUICKLY ALWAYS TAKE SIDES WITH THE OPPOSITE WHEN YOU DONT LIKE SOMEONE..... TAKE AM EASY COS NONE OF THEM COME TO EQUITY WITH CLEAN HANDS
Teejay, you talk with so much authority but your reasoning is relatively low. You are very biased because Wike did not support your TRIBESMAN (PO) to be President of Nigeria. Wike o, Fubara o, other politicians in Nigeria and their senseless backers would soon be consumed by the wrath of God and the people - it is just a matter of time.
DeleteBig Stellz,
DeleteIt's not every thing that's good to say openly. So I won't say more than what I have said above to avoid legal issues.
I have my reasons standing with the Governor at this time. All through yesterday, the voice note of Nyesom Wike was played at all radio stations where he was saying any defector should lose their sit and office. Now the chicken have come home to roost.
This is Karma. He did and treated Ameachi worse. He's reaping his actions.
Stella, one principle I have kept in life is never to take side with an oppressor. So if anyone says I'm taking side with the Governor, I don't know how best to respond on that.
Anon 13:47,
No, it has nothing to do with him working against H.E Peter Obi. I have long moved over from that. If you know what's happening here, you won't assume what you put up there. We in the state knows much. So calm down.
Even Jagaban didn't fight Ambode on his first tenure in office.
But Stella you also do the same when it comes to opposition parties and anyone commenting against APC. You are always quick to give a reply and roll out memos to anyone who doesn’t agree with APC comments and stories. So you see, you and TJ are the same in this.
DeleteI care less about Wike or Fubara, but supporting or giving it to the governor that destroy the buildings built with tax payers money is not giving at all.
DeleteI am no fan of APC, I hate their hypocrisy, lies and insensitivity to the plight of long suffering Nigerians. But over time, I observed that your criticism lack intelligence, information and is purely based on sentimental and tribal hogwash.
DeleteFor your information, the 27 members don't need to operate from within the assembly complex to carry out an impeachment of the governor if that is their goal.
To serve a notice of impeachment for misconduct and other gross allegations, they need just 1/3 of signatories from the house, which they have.
To move a motion for impeachment against the governor they need 2/3 of the members, which they have, so on what leg is Sim standing?
What is playing out has notthing to do with the overall well-being and progress of Rivers people and Rivers state as a whole, just a power tussle between two egotistical individuals and which can only be resolved politically and not by this your beer parlour gossips you like churning out as facts on this blog to mislead the uninformed and gullible BVs
I am Anon 13.47. Teejay, you know NOTHING - you are just a member of the public living on hearsays from your fellow ilks. So stop sounding like you live in Govt House or related to Gov Fubara - you must be suffering from delusions of grandeur. Look at you talking about legal consequences for false narrations that you have heard - I laugh. I live and work in PH - and the parties involved are close acquaintances. They are both shady characters, like all politicians and most public office holders.
DeleteCheks55,
DeleteI noticed you always rubbish people's submission here on issue and believe yours is the best. I have seen you done that on people here. This might be my last rejoinder to you. I have never accused anyone here or disrespect them just like you have done right now towards me. I will never rubbish anyone's opinion here. So I will overlook your silliness this once.
I don't engage foolishly. So I won't give you that delight by towing the path you deserved.
Sensible people know that before any sitting will be done, the Governor must approve a venue constituonally. He has that authority. No house member(s) can convene anywhere at this time. There's an injunction. You think if it can be done anywhere, the Governor will waste his time pulling down the Assembly complex.
He knows the game very well and believe me, there are people on the sideline advising him properly.
Constitutionally, those 27 law makers have lost the right to convene. They have lose their seat. Even Wike knows that. Go and listen to his speech he made on defection. As if he spoke about the future months ago.
Both men aren't my tribe men, so why bring tribalism here? I'm not a PDP or APC apologist, so why all the accusations.
I noticed you people have a way of trying to shut one down here disrespectfully.
Pls avoid my comment, they're not for you.
Don't ever attempt to engage me disrespectfully if you lack manners to respond.
Anon, why are you having headache on a false narration? Mr knows it all I see you. Congrats to your knowledge.
DeleteThe same Port Harcourt I was born and brought up, that I know virtually almost every politicians in the state and have met good number of them. Do you know my position when I was working for PDP at the council level. Do you know what some of us passed through during 2015 & 2019 election.
I am not dragging anything with you bro. You live and work in PH, so where do I live myself? Lagos or Kaduna.
Dey play. I won't be forced to say anything more than I would want to say.
JT na man you be jare....i don't know you in person but you always talk sensibly on this forum. Nwanne keep it up, we in Lasgidi dey feel your vibes.
DeleteI didn't bother reading whatever rejoinder you wrote, because I know it won't be worth my time. However, I will always refute whatever misinformation you come to spew on this blog.
DeleteStella you sef dey oppose anything said against apc na. So let TJ air his views abeg.
Delete...this Fubara seems like a foolish person to me. He just enter market dey fight, what happened to posting the former governor and appealing to his better senses? While Wike is a liability to the FG as it stands, the FG will still defend him before offloading him and his wahala. I don't see Fubara winning this. He destroyed a whole house complex, FG can just issue state of emergency and take over from him...really that simple. Cause of the state of emergency? Anything that was serious enough to destroy a government building almost as old as Fubara himself, this kind of thing happens only in war settings and even then is a war crime if historical enough. TJ, I will pray for you so you can learn to be objective.
DeleteWhy are you shouting Stella? Very razz and uncouth! I am an old BV and just decided to pass through today and see if you have changed from being a bully and opinionated! But no, you haven't. You don't allow anyone have a contrary opinion even when you, Stella is WRONG! You will gather those minions and oh yes members of yours to bully the person! Gutter behavior! You don't know Jack about Rivers state! God "fatherism" can't work in Rivers state. A man who wants to hold the purse string of Rivers state. Has not the good of the people at heart. I dare you to post this! I know you didn't post the happenings in Rivers state during the elections. Disgusting biased Stella!
DeleteSomething they will rebuild with state funds. What's the point? Someone that was forced into the state house o😆 . If the election was fair, SF for no smell PDP primaries.
ReplyDeleteSimi Fubara lacks wisdom and he will "learn" very soon. Nigeria is being controlled by a gang of criminals. This is a neophyte who was compromised and pushed into governance and within such a short time, without any achievements to get the support and backing of the people and/or built political structure, he is fighting a political "demon". I pity him - it is just a matter of time. He will not have any peace for the next three and half years, that is if he survives the upcoming onslaught.
DeleteI pray Wike loses this match.
ReplyDeleteAt the end, the people will be the winners. I can assure you that Gov. Fubara will finish his first tenure. The second tenure I can't say.
DeleteIt's only in a zoo country like Nigeria that people, elected by the people to safe guard lives and property of the people, will turn around to destroy the same lives and property.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you call this kind of thing?
The other time it was fire, now it's demolition.
Shameless it is.
Na wa oo
ReplyDeleteAnd they will use tax payers money to rebuild it..
Learning from his erstwhile godfather wike, destroy and stampede into submission anyone and everything that stands in my way.
ReplyDeleteWhen governorship was handed over to him on a platter without him even campaigning, didn't he know there was a price to pay. When he was aiding and covering up financial excesses and reckless spending by wike, was he good man? what trait did wike see in him that made him single him out to be his successor? Why is he Sim now playing the victim card and trying to act as if he is a saint? Mtcheww
Stella don vex, this one that every word is on caps like this. It is well jare. When will god father and god son war end? Akpabio and Udom, Oshiomole and Obaseki etc.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm there was once a country seriously Nigeria don tire me
ReplyDeleteJust like a barrister said,
ReplyDelete''Wike spoke to the future of today! (Citing a video of him kicking against defections and anyone who does, should forfeit his seat)
However, a foundation built on intimidation, oppression, violence, and deceit will certainly collapse because what goes around comes around.....
His advice to the 27 Rivers House Assembly defectors, should be sustained!
Governor Fubara should assert his authority and ignore the rabble rousers, they have completely lost it.
Please read what the constitution says about the procedure for impeachment of a governor and see if SF stands a chance if this is really carried out. You glory alot in ignorance, and it is irksome
DeleteCheks you get time to dey reply TJ ooo. TJ???? Lmao🙄
DeleteEven though Gov Wike built a lot of flyovers, he should allow SIM to lead and make a mark for himself.
ReplyDeleteWhen the chips are down, the masses might have sympathy for current governor and support him. Say NO to godfatherism.
Haba is this not extreme
ReplyDelete🙄🙄🙄
ReplyDeleteI love how the Governor is being underrated.
ReplyDeleteBREAKING!!! Gov Sim Fubara Presents N800bn 2024 Budget of Renewed Hope, Consolidation & Continuity to Rivers Assembly at New Complex
Say no to godfatherism, I wonder why Wike is fighting he did the same to Amechi so it is Fubara's turn so he should go and rest
ReplyDeleteTaink u
DeleteGbammest.
DeleteWeather demolition or no demolition Rivers state should favour us.
ReplyDeleteTeejah and other aobidients think the same. Anything against APC, good or bad, they must support. How do you justify pulling down an entire complex built with taxpayers' money just cos of your beef with someone? Who justifies such? Madness in grand form. If he gets away this, and with the way he is being hailed politicians have precedent to do the unimaginable to maintain power
