Amidst the Rivers crisis the Ogoni people of the state has threatened to occupy the streets of Abuja if Tinubu does not call Wike to order.
The Ogonis under the umbrella of Ogoni Development Drive (ODD) said it has “uncovered a plan by the FCT Minister, Mr. Nyesome Wike, and the expelled former Assembly members, to continuously raise political tension and upheaval against the Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara and the good people of Rivers state”.
This is contained in a press release signed by Comrade Solomon Lenu, convener of Ogoni Development Drive (ODD) and made available to journalists in Abuja said it wants to use this medium to “inform the Inspector General Police (IGP) and the Nigerian public that, should they be allowed to continue to cause tension that impedes peaceful governance, which is creating a false atmosphere of crisis, and keeping investors away from our state to the detriment of our teeming youths who are searching for employment opportunities, that ODD will massively mobilize the people of Rivers state to occupy the streets of Abuja.
“We therefore call on the Presidency to rein in Chief Wike, so that we can have a peaceful atmosphere for governance in Rivers state as it is in other states in Nigeria.
