Power Tussle In Rivers: Wike Vows To Stop Fubara’s Second-Term Dream
According to Nivo News, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has declared that allowing Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, to secure a second term would spell political ruin for him and his allies.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Wike made the statement on Saturday during a stakeholders’ meeting in Okrika Local Government Area of Rivers State, where he accused the governor of violating the peace agreement that preceded the lifting of the emergency rule in the state and enabled his return to office.
The former Rivers governor, who recently intensified his criticism of Fubara following the governor’s defection to the All Progressives Congress, said a firm decision had already been reached in consultation with President Bola Tinubu concerning Fubara’s second-term ambition.
According to Wike, backing Fubara again would amount to repeating a costly political mistake, which he said he was unwilling to make. He stressed that he would not allow himself or his political structure to be “buried politically” by supporting a second term for the governor, adding that the position had been clearly decided.
Amid the deepening political rift, the Rivers Ijaw Peoples Congress has also withdrawn its support for Governor Fubara and pledged allegiance to Wike. The shift was announced by the group’s chairman, Senator George Sekibo, during Wike’s “thank you” visit to Okrika.
Sekibo explained that the decision to abandon Fubara was based on Wike’s longstanding contributions to the Ijaw people, describing the fallout between the two leaders as unfortunate but insisting that the Ijaw nation remained grateful to those who had supported its political advancement.
The senator recalled Wike’s role in facilitating Fubara’s emergence as governor, noting that the congress’ decision reflected loyalty and appreciation rather than hostility, as Rivers State politics continues to witness major realignments ahead of future elections.

Sacked In Record Time! How The PFIPC Controversy Cost Adeyemi His Spot In The Adeleke Administration.
-
New controversy surrounds Prince Matthew Adeniyi Adeyemi, the man accused of operating a fake federal agency, as reports emerge that he was previously fired from a role as an aide to Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke for alleged corrupt practices.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
-
-
Adeyemi, who claims to be the Director-General of the unrecognized Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC), is currently under investigation by the Presidency for operating a fictitious entity and falsely claiming an association with Femi Gbajabiamila, the President’s Chief of Staff.
-
The Presidency has officially disavowed Adeyemi and emphasized the urgent need for security agencies to dismantle the internal network that facilitated his activities.
-
Sources indicate that Adeyemi served as a Senior Special Assistant on Protocol for Governor Adeleke in 2023, where he was tasked with managing visa and travel documentation.
-
His tenure reportedly ended after four months when the French Embassy contacted the Osun State Government regarding a letter the administration had no record of sending.
-
An internal investigation allegedly revealed that Adeyemi had forged Governor Adeleke’s signature on official correspondence to the embassy to pursue personal fraudulent interests.
-
Following the discovery, the Governor reportedly ordered the Secretary to the State Government to dismiss Adeyemi immediately, though he opted not to pursue legal prosecution at the time to maintain focus on his administration.
-
While the Presidency maintains that the PFIPC does not exist, Adeyemi continues to assert that his appointment is legitimate and has leveled counter-accusations of corruption against the Chief of Staff, claims which the Presidency has rejected.
