There were rumors of a schism developing on Sunday between the members of the Rivers State House of Assembly after some of them started the process of impeaching Fubara.

Eze claimed that Wike had chosen to take action against Governor Fubara due to his support of Amaechi’s people-focused initiatives for the state’s advancement.

In addition, Wike has attempted to exclude Fubara from all political engagements and decisions both inside and outside the state. As a result, Fubara was warned not to attend any political gatherings in Abuja, including the PDP-Governors Forum, where he is influential as Vice Chair.

Since the governor has not committed any crimes that may result in his impeachment, Edison Ehie, the leader of the State House of Assembly, was stripped of his majority leadership position after rejecting the attempt to remove him.

Edison, however, was also said to have won the election to become the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly.

To prevent a highly immoral emperor from taking over Rivers State and its people, Eze called on the people of Rivers State to unite behind the governor.

“Nyesom Wike is an extremely talented person, and Rivers State is too advanced to be held as a slave.”

It is extremely regrettable and saddening that the governor of Rivers State is being targeted for impeachment because he wishes to bring back the majority of Amaechi’s vision, which included the Songhai and the Greater Port Harcourt projects, which were designed to make the state not only self-sufficient but also to empower the majority of its youth.

To reiterate, Wike should not try to rekindle his illegal use of five lawmakers to begin the process of impeaching Amaechi by July 2013, since his plan to assassinate Fubara will fail miserably this time.

“The destiny of the State cannot be decided by Wike on his personal property, Rivers State.”

Members of the Rivers State House of Assembly were advised by the APC Chief to explore the process of removing a governor.

In order to free himself from the enslavement imposed on him by the FCT Minister, Eze urged Governor Fubara to continue the struggle.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio is not as knowledgable on matters pertaining to the parliament as Borno South’s representative, Senator Ali Ndume, of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
This was stated by Ndume, who criticized Akpabio’s leadership style in the 10th Senate, on Politics on Sunday.

“What bothered me is not so much what happened the last time, but how he handled the matter and how it was misconstrued. Remember that I participated in this battle and ran an Akpabio campaign? Building a house does not allow for its demolition.

“My greater experience than his is the primary issue. You don’t override your chief whip; I’m the one who calls someone to order. That’s what I sought to correct him on. It was 12:30 pm and I had to go pray, but he took advantage of the gavel. I was supposed to be invited then and we would have more one-on-one time.
Following a confrontation with Akpabio on October 19, the lawmaker—who was first elected to the Senate in 2011—spoke of storming out of the chamber.

During her speech on the show, Ndume urged President Bola Tinubu to issue an executive order on riches that seemed out of explanation.

Notwithstanding the fact that the UK and other countries have legislation addressing these kinds of problems, the legislator claimed he tried to draft some bills in that area.

In an interview with Sunday Politics, he remarked, “I have tried several times, but you know, there were excuses here and there.” “The current president should sign an executive bill on unexplained wealth in the interim or when the bill comes from the executive branch, I believe that’s the best way to do this.”
Ndume contends that special legislation is needed to address the degree of unexplained wealth among the nation’s lawmakers and civil personnel.

Daniel Bwala, a lawyer who supported Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, has demanded that Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike be fired immediately.
According to reports, Bwala made the appeal in response to the Rivers lawmakers’ scheme to remove State Governor Simi Fubara from office after a falling out with Wike.

Following a fire on Sunday, the governor had gone to the Assembly complex on Monday morning. However, security personnel opened fire on him and used tear gas.

Bwala stated in a post on X that Fubara should use his executive authority to drive Wike out of the country because the nation’s democracy does not tolerate authoritarianism.

The adviser to Atiku also urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to exercise caution around Wike before he damages the reputation of his administration both domestically and globally.

In his letter, he stated that Sim Fubara need to drive Wike out of the city by using all of his executive authority. Authoritarianism is not recognized in our democracy. Fubara was the one who cast the vote to become Rivers State’s executive governor and chief security officer. It is recommended that @officialABAT handle Wike with utmost caution before Wike damages the reputation of his administration both domestically and globally. Wike should be fired by PBAT right away.

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate for 2023, Atiku Abubakar, has stated that he will not be stepping down from active, partisan politics just yet.
Nonetheless, he made hints that the time had come for him to stop running for elective office and let the younger people take up the cause.

The hint was revealed by the former vice president on Monday during a press conference where he responded to the Supreme Court’s decision upholding President Bola Tinubu’s victory as the All Progressives Congress (APC) nominee on February 25, 2023.

Atiku and the PDP filed an appeal, but it was dismissed by the Supreme Court on Thursday, October 26 for lack of merit. It is unclear if the PDP leader will run in the 2027 elections, by which time he would be 81 years old.

Atiku stated in his speech on Monday that although the fight to strengthen Nigeria’s political institutions and democracy will go on, the younger generation will now be in the forefront of it.

“This phase of our work is done for me and my party,” he declared. I will not, however, disappear. I will fight alongside other Nigerians to strengthen our democracy and rule of law as well as to bring about the kind of political and economic transformation that the nation need in order to realize its full potential for as long as I live. The younger generation of Nigerians, who have even greater stakes than my generation, ought to take the lead in that effort.

On Sunday, Senator Yunus Akintunde, who represents the Oyo Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly, stated that Nigerian politics and administration have nothing to do with the apparent decay in the infrastructure sustenance culture of government at all levels.

During the Iroko Community Grammar School’s 40th anniversary celebration in 1983, which took place on the school’s grounds in Oyo State’s Akinyele Local Government Area, he disclosed this information.

Akintunde responded, “I strongly disagree with him,” to Architect Oladejo Olawoyin, the keynote speaker, who had earlier linked the country’s politics to the difficulties in maintaining public infrastructure. There is no connection between our political system and the state of the education infrastructure’s decay. It’s not only about educational infrastructure; it’s a pure policy issue.

It’s common to see thousands of solar street lights turned on these days. These days, governments put them on. They will all pass away in five years, as there is no maintenance budget in place. “After about one or two years, the whole thing went off because, while building up our contract, the provision for renovations, maintenance, and rehabilitation has never been part of our contract,” recalls former Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala. “That was the first time they put on solar street lights on Awolowo Road, old Bodija in Ibadan.” Consider how many years ago the majority of these buildings were constructed. therefore, no upkeep. The decline of public utilities in Nigeria must be stopped, he said, and non-governmental involvement as well as private initiative in the country’s educational system must be promoted.
Prior to this, Olawoyin had declared, “We conducted research and found that over 300,000 schools in Nigeria have collapsed due to dilapidation.” Dilapidation is the state in which facilities that should be maintained are destroyed and left in ruins. It indicates that your priorities are off when you don’t have a maintenance culture.

Many of these schools were established in the South-West in the 1960s by Chief Obafemi Awolowo. With the exception of the schools situated on main thoroughfares, I can confirm that over 90% of these establishments have closed.Check out Ibadan University. A US doctor has stated he will donate a million dollars, and we are trying to find a way to repair some of the University College Hospital’s buildings. Therefore, we require the alma mater’s cooperation. First, though, our policies are the real issue that is dilapidated—not the structures. Our schooling is no more. I brought up Awolowo because of that.

Allow me to present a bottom-up approach. Return control of the school to the missionaries. It’s obvious that the government can no longer manage them. We should use that tactic here as well as throughout Nigeria. Strong endowment and alma mater are essential. Seek out your opportunities to serve the nation rather than what it can do for you, advised President Bola Tinubu. The nation is insolvent. That is the reality. We must examine ourselves.

“The resources were not placed where they should have been. In actuality, we have forgotten that education is what will challenge us. That was Awolowo’s thought process in the 1960s. But for perhaps fifty or sixty years, we forgot. These schools are untouchable. The roofs, doors, and other parts have collapsed,” he said.
