Our attention has been drawn to yet another ill-mannered Press Statement issued from the office of the Rivers State APC Chairman, Mr Davies Ikanya wherein he made the usual outlandish and spurious allegations of the party against the person of Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike (CON). It is high time Mr Ikanya stopped this show of shame.
His deliberate attempt to distract the administration through the use of fabricated tales and indecent commentaries that show total disrespect to the Government and people of Rivers State is unfortunate.
This recycled Press Statement reissued today by Mr Ikanya is further prove that he is the mouthpiece of a desperate clan that viciously damaged Rivers State, but are only comfortable using propaganda to divert attention from their unfortunate and disastrous reign.
The immediate past administration of Rotimi Amaechi destroyed all the institutions of governance in Rivers State, especially the Judiciary which led to the growth of insecurity in the state.
The same failed administration, in which Mr Ikanya was a principal ugly actor ensured that the Police and other security agencies were not supported by the state government through additional funding and logistics, hence they were unable to respond to security challenges during the disastrous reign of Amaechi.
It was under the failed Rivers State APC administration that known cultists were released from detention for political reasons a few days to the general elections. Nigerians heard the Rivers State PDP raise alarm when the former failed governor took that action.
Since May 29, Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has taken very proactive measures to improve security in the state and address the security challenges deliberately created by the failed Amaechi administration.
He has restored the Judiciary to ensure the dispensation of justice and in liaison with the State House of Assembly enacted the Anti-Kidnapping and Cultism to deal with obvious challenges inherited from the Rivers State APC. He has improved funding for the security agencies and equipped them with 64 Hilux vans to improve their response to security challenges. Today, the state is better secured with further steps taken to improve the security situation.
Mr Ikanya cannot continue to rehash same lies all over again. They were at the the Tribunal, tendered the same concocted photographs which were rejected. They failed to call any witnesses to prove that their members suffered any violence and they had no case other than the tales by four misguided gossips who pretended to be soldiers and policemen.
The game is up for the Rivers State APC. These lies are no longer effective and it is time that Mr Ikanya sought another means of livelihood.
Rivers people overwhelmingly voted for Governor Wike as their leader till May 28, 2019. Displaced politicians like Ikanya and his sponsors must accept this fact.
Rivers State is a Federating Unit in Nigeria with Nyesom Ezenwo Wike as her Governor. Mr Ikanya and his sponsors must be told that Governor Wike is the Chief Executive and his actions are driven by the need to promote the interest of the people of the state.

Special Assistant ( Media ) to the Rivers State Governor.
