The ongoing local government elections in Rivers State have descended into chaos, with heavy gunfire erupting in the Rumuepirikom community, hometown of Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Chief Nyesom Wike.

It should be noted that Wike, a former governor of the state, is at odds with the present governor, Siminalayi Fubara, who, against the odds, has gone ahead with conducting the grassroots elections.

Eyewitnesses report that unidentified individuals stormed the area, warning residents to stay indoors. As electoral officers arrived at the ward in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, armed men, suspected to be political thugs, launched a violent attack.

At least one person has been rushed to a hospital after sustaining a bullet injury

Why Wike

Please let me know when you people finally enter the 18th century

Wike's ward? Wike's community? Wike's hometown?

Which one be that?

Wike should go and settle with his Oga Fubara. This is childish things

ANARCHY LOADING. Where are the police!!!

I think it's just a 21-gun salute for the burial of the past power brokers and heralding of new ones

More like last kick of a dying horse

Wike has been a minister and nobody has been able to touch him.

After all this Fubara will still win, Wike save your money people de do you local 😂😂

Wike's ward?

This one too na coincidence oo

Anything Wike does, i am 100% in support.
Let us go illegality for illegality, madness for madness and let the most crazy person win.
No matter how many people are killed, i will still blame Fubara for it

Wike supporters will never learn. They are all block heads. 27 House of Assembly members have lost their seats and may likely remain so until next elections. No seating, no salary. Wike abandoned the case like that and now faces Local government elections to deprive those ones of getting atleast 5 seats in the election

He told chairmanship aspirants not to participate and they foolishly obeyed him again, knowing fully well that house of Assembly members that obeyed him have not regained their seats since then.

What in heavens name do we call these set of people still obeying Wike?

their modus operandi

Ok

Is Wike the governor of Rivers state?

What does he want from Rivers state?

Whether Wike likes it or not, an opposition must be his Ward Councillor and Local Government Chairman since his party declared they are not participating in the election!
Let the one contending party win all!!

Those who instigated this violence for this horrIble man,How much did he give them to waste there lives for nothing

Elections are always do or die affairs in Rivers state...

Nothing new!

What is Wike's concern with Rivers LGA election please?
River State chapter of his PDP party said they're not interested in the election, won't he enjoy his peace and seek redress in court??
As for you, you have thuggery in your DNA but no body has monopoly of violence!

Wike is a man of the people.

Na do or die level.

Last last results will still be declared and APP will be declared winner. It's a new dawn
