Demola Olarenwaju, the Special Assistant on Digital Media Strategy to former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on Friday accused the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike of dragging the Nigeria Police Force and court into his “beef” with Governor Sim Fubara.
Olarenwaju accused Wike is trying to use the police and court to set Rivers State on fire.
He was reacting to reports that Fubara stormed the headquarters of the Rivers State Independence Electoral Commission, RSIEC, following an attempt by the police to prevent Saturday’s local government election from holding.
Posting on X, Olarenwaju wrote: “Tinubu’s Minister, Wike is dragging the courts and the police into his political beef with his successor Governor Sim Fubara whom the people are with.
“It is a shame to him and his record as a former Governor that he wants to set his own state on fire, but Fubara is fully onground.
“Terribly sad and absolutely condemnable that Nyesom Wike in connivance with the IGP are fomenting trouble in Rivers. This is entirely on APC under Tinubu’s watch.
“A sad throwback to the dangerous federal gangsterism days of early Democracy that Rivers’ people must resist.”
