“Iroegbu Urges Tinubu To Sack Wike Amid Rivers Impeachment Crisis”.

Published

According to Nivo News, Dickson Iroegbu, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the ObiDient movement, has blamed the renewed impeachment moves against Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara on what he described as political overreach enabled by the All Progressives Congress (APC), warning that the crisis poses a threat to Nigeria’s democratic stability.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Speaking to Arise News on Friday, Iroegbu said the sudden recall of the Rivers State House of Assembly from recess to begin impeachment proceedings was deliberate and premeditated. He alleged that the Assembly leadership’s actions mirrored the influence of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, suggesting that lawmakers were acting under his direction. “Even the language of the Speaker, you could hear him re-echoing the language of the FCT Minister, that Sim Fubara is a mistake. He kept saying that. So you could clearly see that it was a Nyesom Wike action, acted by those who are his stooges,” he stated.

Despite his criticism, Iroegbu said he felt no sympathy for either side. “The truth is that I have no tears for both camps. I have no tears for Sim Fubara. I have no pity either for Nyesom Wike, who is now biting more than he can chew,” he said. He also held political actors accountable for Wike’s rise, arguing that the APC, through presidential backing, provided him with a platform that he has used to undermine democratic norms.

Iroegbu accused the ruling party of positioning Wike to weaken the PDP, saying, “They positioned him to wreck, to destroy, to undermine, to possibly annihilate the Peoples Democratic Party. And having almost succeeded with that, he now thinks himself bigger than possibly even the President.” He added that Wike’s rhetoric suggests a belief in unchecked authority in Rivers State and could expose internal contradictions within the ruling party.

Urging decisive action, Iroegbu said, “I hope the President will have the boldness to sack Nyesom Wike and make him realise that there is only one President and Commander-in-Chief.” He claimed that Wike had outlived his usefulness to the ruling party and that his failure could ultimately benefit the opposition. “For us in the PDP, this roforofo fight that is going on, we pray it continues so that we can have the space to engage further and help salvage our country,” he said, adding that the situation would strengthen the PDP’s position in Rivers State once resolved.

Key highlights from his address include:

  • Collective Responsibility: Akpabio stressed that military hardware alone cannot end criminality, urging citizens to partner with security agencies by providing timely and credible intelligence.

  • Economic and Banking Resilience: He declared that Nigeria’s banking sector has shifted from survival to absolute dominance, becoming one of the safest and most technologically advanced in Africa.

  • Reforms Yielding Results: He credited ongoing bank recapitalisation and financial reforms for ending the era where banks could suddenly collapse and cause depositors to lose their savings.

Ultimately, the Senate President maintained that a combination of proactive security operations, economic reforms, and civic cooperation will drive Nigeria’s path toward lasting recovery and national development.
