The Rivers Elders and Leadership Forum (RELF) has slammed the eight-point resolution reached between Governor Siminayi Fubara and Minister Nyesom Wike, accusing it of unfairly benefiting Wike and harming the state.
In a letter to President Bola Tinubu, the forum, comprising former governors, deputy governors, academics, technocrats, traditional rulers, and community leaders, labelled the resolution “skewed,” “unimplementable,” and damaging to both Fubara and Rivers’ well-being.
Signatories of the letter include former Governor Rufus Ada George. Others are Dr. GTG Toby, a former deputy governor, Senators Andrew Uchendu and Ben Birabi, Chief Anabs Sara Igbe, and others.
The forum’s primary grievance lies with the resolution’s alleged imbalance. They argue that the meeting’s composition and attendance tilted heavily towards Wike’s camp. The elders further claim that the resolution itself is riddled with legal inconsistencies.
What were the elders doing while the rage was going on. They requested & waited for the president intervention only to come out late castigating the president’s peaceful resolutions.
Confused fake elders who’s only happy and enjoy themselves when there is crisis… President Tinubu is more intelligent than you people, a thoroughbred democrat, a man of peace and a silent achiever… So wether, you people like it or not, PEACE has come to stay in River’s state. Long live president Tinubu! Long live River State!! Long live federal republic of Nigeria!!!
