President Tinubu, Wike Dragged To Court (SEE WHY)
President Bola Tinubu is being sued by certain Rivers State residents for allegedly pressuring Governor Siminalayi Fubara to accept a deal that would put an end to the political crisis that has overtaken the state. At a meeting of Rivers State stakeholders on Monday at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Mr. Tinubu mediated a peace deal to put an end to the rivalry between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Governor Nyesom Wike. Among the things included in the peace agreement are the withdrawal of all court cases related to the crisis and Governor Fubara’s permission for the 25 legislators who switched from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress to carry out their legislative responsibilities. Governor Fubara, Mr. Wike, Peter Odilli, a former official, and other political leaders in the state.
According to BGT NEWS, in addition to Messrs. Fubara and Wike, the resolution document was also signed by Aaron Chukwuemeka, the chairwoman of the PDP in Rivers State, and Martin Amaewhule, the speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly. Ngozi Ordu, the deputy governor of Rivers, and Martin Chike, the divided speaker of the State House of Assembly, also signed the motion. However, this newspaper later revealed that during the meeting, President Tinubu chastised Mr. Fubara for his part in the crisis. But in the new lawsuit, which was submitted to the Federal High Court in Abuja, the plaintiffs claimed that the peace accord was unlawful. The claimants are human rights attorney Ann Kio Briggs and Rivers State House of Assembly member Victor Jumbo, who represents Bonny State
