As world collapses around Wike
As world collapses around Wike

Less than a year ago he was on top of the world. With his godfather Dr. Goodluck Jonathan sitting pretty inside Aso Rock, every available coercive, monetary and political facility of the Federal Government was available to Nyesom Wike, and he made maximum use of it. He turned Rivers State upside down. Thugs, cultists, policemen such as Joseph Mbu, soldiers and even crooked election commission officials all participated in the do or die effort to make him governor.
Nearly every media, local and international observer said the election that returned Wike as governor was the worst in the country last April. Now that an election tribunal has said as much, Wike is alleging that it is a script written by the Federal Government to snatch power from him. Wike, is it now you know that Federal Governments write scripts for Rivers State?
