A former Chief Whip of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Evans Bipi, has leveled accusations of electoral fraud during the 2023 general elections in Rivers State. He pointed fingers at former Governor Nyesom Wike, alleging that the polls were rigged under his watch………CONTINUE READING
Bipi made these assertions during a support rally organized for Governor Siminalayi Fubara by women’s organizations from all 23 local government areas. He specifically claimed that the Labour Party emerged victorious in all their elections in the state.
These allegations surfaced following a widely circulated video of Wike, who is now the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, asserting his dominance in the upcoming general election. Tensions between Wike and Governor Fubara have been on the rise since Fubara took office, with reports suggesting that the former governor has been assuring his followers of Fubara’s impending defeat in the next gubernatorial election.
In response to Wike’s claims, Bipi, representing Fubara at the rally, expressed confidence in Fubara’s electoral prospects, citing extensive female mobilization. He also noted that Wike and his allies failed to secure any seats in the 2023 elections.
Bipi’s remarks reflect a growing rift between political factions in Rivers State, with allegations of electoral manipulation adding fuel to the fire. As the political landscape continues to evolve, these accusations may have far-reaching implications for future elections in the state.
