In what has been described as a strange move, Rivers state Governor, Nyesom Wike, on Thursday dissolved the Caretaker Committees of 17 out of the 23 local government areas in the state.
This dissolution is coming just after Wike suspended the state Head of Service, Mr. Rufus Godwins, four commissioners and one special adviser.
Though no reason was given for the development, the governor, through his Special Adviser on Electronic Media, Mr. Simeon Nwakaudu, said the dissolution of the LG caretaker committees would take immediate effect.
“The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has dissolved the Caretaker Committees of 17 local government areas of the state.
“The dissolution of the caretaker committees takes immediate effect,” the statement issued in Port Harcourt read.
The statement directed the affected caretaker committee chairmen to hand over to the most senior officials in their respective councils.
The affected councils are:
1.) Abua/Odual
2.)Akuku-Toru
3.) Ahoada East
4.) Andoni
5.) Bonny
6.) Eleme
7.) Emohua
8.) Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni
9.) Omuma
10.) Oyigbo
11.) Port Harcourt City
12.) Etche
13.) Ikwerre
14.) Obio/Akpor
15.) Ogu/Bolo
16.) Okrika
17.) Tai
18.) Lalasticlala

African autocracy in action. Our senators and representatives are not even doing anything meaningful to restore autonomy to our local governments as provided in the constitution. Government is easier and closer when you can blame your local government chairman for the bad roads in your community and forget about the governor or president. When you participate actively in the local elections as much as he state and federal elections
