Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, chief of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, blamed Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territories (FCT), for framed the crisis with an inauguration setback and strongly criticised Governor each, Siminalayi Fubara.
In a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Tuesday, Ez, former national spokesman for the abolished New Ethnic Democrats (NPDP), argued that the Week impact on the presidency is spurring Rivers State’s ongoing political crisis.
Eze argued that with the support of the presidency, Week was behind the move to each Hubara and set up Martins Amauheur as governor, thereby consolidating political control ahead of the 2027 general election.
“With support from the presidency, Week is defending the plot to each Governor Fabara and set up Amauhuhur as governor.
“Obviously, Wike is to use his unclean political marriage to Tinubu to destabilize the river state and deflect the governor of Fubara. Their ultimate goal is to ensure that their sturdy Amauhuhur will become governor and take control of Rivers’ politics towards 2027,” Eze said.
“The plot to remove Fabara will collapse.”
However, the APC stubborn declared that the plot for each of the bullets would fail, claiming that it would not weaken him, but would only strengthen Hubara’s position.
“These evil, undemocratic plots to remove Hubara from the office will only fall like a pack of cards, making him stronger,” he said.
Eze also warned that Tinubu’s relationship with Week could harm his political position, saying “he advised President Tinubu from the start that his romance with Week would not only destroy the APC, but also tainted his reputation as a Democrat.”
Naija News reports that APC Chieftain has described those pushing for the removal of Fubara as ignorant, particularly about the historical balance of power between the highlands and river regions.
“For 24 years, Rivers State has been governed by leaders from the high axle, from Dr. Peter Odiri to Rotimi Amaech and Naisom Wyke. Ir Hubara was the first governor from the river axle, and now there is a conspiracy to remove him prematurely,” he argued.
He warned that such a move would be interpreted as a direct attack on the Ijoh state and other river ethnic groups in Rivers State.
“Humiliating Governor Ijo outside his duties due to one person’s greed and authoritarian tendencies is the political insensibility of the highest order,” he added.
Amaewhule-led MPs slum
Eze also swipes on Martin Amawell-led MPs, accusing them of undermining democracy and creating ock-lols of legislative obligations.
“The bandwagon of Amaewhule and his exiles lack the legitimacy of ordering a sitting governor.
“They are humiliated, they are shaming fubara’s unprintable name, and don’t realize they are actually mean to the position of Governor Rivers,” he said.
Eze further challenged Week and asked if he would have allowed the same level of political crisis if he was still governor.
“If Wike was still governor, would anyone dare to treat him the way he deals with Fubara? Will he tolerate this level of political obstruction?” eze asked.
He said that Hubara’s peace-loving nature would prevent the nation from falling into complete chaos, “If not for Hubara’s perseverance and wisdom, Waik and the president’s enabler would have already seen what would happen when you push people against the wall.”
Lawmakers who refused to attend the peace conference revealed their intentions
Eze also criticized Amaeure-led MPs for refusing to invite Hubara to a peace meeting in the House of Governor.
He described the invitation as a political masterstroke, saying that their refusal to attend exposed them as true enemies of river peace.
“The world knows who is really really interested in peace and who succumbs to hell in causing political instability,” Eze said.
He urged lawmakers to stop playing God and warned them not to intentionally interfere with the peace and progress of the river.
“The Rivers State is bigger than any individual. Those who act as if the nation cannot move forward should take a step back and reflect,” he concluded.
