Wike Opens Up: I’ll Correct My Mistake of Backing Fubara at the Right Time

… Says, Midnight Court Injunctions Can’t Remove Rivers Lawmakers

FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has declared that court injunctions obtained by midnight cannot be used to unseat any member of the Rivers State House of Assembly.

Wike made this statement at the grand civic reception held at Ogu-Bolo in honor of Chief George Thompson Sekibo, who was being celebrated for his 20 years of service at the National Assembly and 36 years of his life in public service.

Wike, who spoke on Saturday, said, “If they like, they can go to anybody by 2am or 4am to get an injunction. The law will take its course. We must follow due process.” He also turned to the suspended assembly members and said, “Don’t be afraid, nobody will remove you as a lawmaker. Most of you don’t understand. This is our work. Our business is to make them fear. That is what I am doing. We will make them angry every day, and they will continue to make mistakes.”

Wike also declared that backing Governor Siminalayi Fubara was a mistake he would correct at the appropriate time. “I want to say this clearly, in life, we have made a mistake. I have made a mistake. I own it up, and I say God forgive me. I have said all of you forgive me. But we will correct it at the appropriate time. I am human, I am bound to make a mistake. So forgive me for making a wrong judgment. So nobody should kill.”

The event was attended by many political associates of Wike, including Senator Magnus Abe, Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) Dr. Samuel Ogbuku, NDDC Director of Finance and Administration Boma Iyayi, House of Assembly members, local government chairmen, senators, and others.
