What Could Be Wike’s Ulterior Motives For The Lockdown by lrdval: 4:23am On May 08, 2020 |
Really want to use this platform to hear from others and probably someone might get it right. Rivers state has joined TOTAL LOCKDOWN yesterday, and this lockdown only affects some local Governments in the state. People has been wondering why the Governor will only lock down some parts of the state and leave the others open. Does that mean that those areas that where open are immune to the virus or not really part of the state that matters, or is there any ULTERIOR MOTIVES behind this total lockdown from Him. Please this is 21 century and social media has helped a lot in exposing so many deals and plots by the government through one or two persons who outthink them. Let’s share our views. What do you think might be the governors ulterior motives towards this lockdown. Let’s think outside the box. For me. I think he doesn't want any oil company from his state to function properly. So that he can shake offs some cash from FG. Suggest yours. Let’s reason together. |

He is just being clever by half by treating other parts of Rivers the same way he accuses the FG of maligning the state. 1 Like |

The story of Rivers State is open if you have a neutral mind. The two LGA under lockdown are where u may consider to be called Portharcourt, over 95% of the companies in Rivers State and their workers live in this place, all the cases of Covid 19 were recorded there. So it makes sense to isolate this places properly not like what was observed in some parts of Lagos and Ogun were people were moving about during lockdown. Lockdown if done properly, we can beat this virus by simply quarantining and isolating those that are infected. There is no motive here, all I see is a gateman (Wike) working hard to keep his home safe. 11 Likes 1 Share |

There's no ulterior motive there. He locked those place due to the first-hand information he got about them. |

Taich: God bless you. I don't understand the baseless theories flying around as if Rivers is the first State to be locked down. Should the man wait till things degenerate to the Kano level before taking this step? 3 Likes |

lrdval: This thread is needless. Ondo, Kwara, Delta, Edo and a host of other States were locked down previously by their governors without any public backlash. Why so much noise about that of Rivers State? You want the governor to wait till people start dropping dead in droves before taking proactive steps so you can turn around and blame him for inaction? Wike hasn't asked the FG for any kobo. He only exposed the fact that Lagos received financial support while other States were left out. I recall he also rejected the food palliatives offered by the FG on the ground that they were insufficient for distribution and unsafe for consumption. There's is no ulterior motive other than a quest to keep his domain safe, especially given that we have an incompetent/indifferent government at the center. 5 Likes |

Leo3333:And he locked some parts and left the others open. What are you even talking about. Since he locked port harcourt LGA it was only on Wednesday that they reported that shell has provided testing machine for covid19. So all these while that he locked down this LGA, what was his plans. How can people even go for the test when the city is on stand still. No vehicles allowed. Oga comment your own and shift one side. . The question is. Why did he locked some part and left some parts open. What could be his motives. Most people who supports Wike and this lockdown around me are mostly students who doesn't know what it takes to bring meal to the table. If for one second. You think that our Nigerian politician has our interest at heart with any of their policy and actions. I am soo sorry for you. |

Re: What Could Be Wike’s Ulterior Motives For The Lockdown by 24SEVEN: 11:04am On May 08, 2020 |
lrdval: The irresponsible FG did not provide Covid-19 testing machine for Rivers over 2months after the first case in Lagos from an Italian. You know how important Rivers is to Nigeria, yet we were neglected up until Shell provided 2 testing Machines. Instead of you to allocate blame to FG, your blaming Wike. Wike has stated clearly that he can only do is flatten the curve and that is possible by enforcing lockdown. he can not treat anyone. call NCDC for that. He has provided Isolation centre, that is what state governments provide. The FG conducts testing. Again, let me let you know that Bias has beclouded your reasoning. Don't quote me. |

I think it's to punish the FG for not giving Rivers state money by indirectly shutting the oil and gas industry... OP I concur with you... |

Re: What Could Be Wike’s Ulterior Motives For The Lockdown by Dakad: 12:16pm On May 08, 2020 |
I agreed totally with you. I'm a resident of PH. If you noticed the previous selective lockdown especially the Rumuomasi axis was basically targeted to reduce the spread based on the confirmed cases around that area. And this total lock down of PH to me is for people to self isolate incase of any exposure. My challenge with Wike or any other governor or president declaring lock down here and there without conscious testing is half hazard approach. I would have love he uses this period of lockdown to implement what the Rivers State COVID-19 taskforce earlier proposed of visiting the hospitals to conduct random testing. With this, if any case is confirmed within this lockdown, effective contact tracing will help to minimize the spread. We should not forget, if what we heard about majority of the covid-19 patients been asymptomatic, if nothing is done to discover any carrier during the lockdown, the consequence thereafter will be dangerous. I trust us when the lockdown is lifted, lots of people will throw caution to the air and the spread might be much. Even from my observation of the two days to the lockdown in PH, is so saddened that the rush made majority to threw caution to the air. My point is that this lockdown will be more effective if effective testing is carried out especially by starting with the hospitals as earlier proposed. Let's also try for some that have the capacity to help the less privileges around us not necessarily the online beggers but those living around us. This will ease the burden of lockdown on majority and together we defeat this virus by the grace of God Taich: |
Re: What Could Be Wike’s Ulterior Motives For The Lockdown by Dakad: 12:21pm On May 08, 2020 |
My point exactly. Let's all play our little role to ensure this pandemic isn't out of hand. It's a known fact that we don't have government in Nigeria from Federal to nonexistent local government. We can't handle major outbreak. Let's endure this little pain of hunger and inconveniences. And for as many who have the means let's help the less privilege within our neighborhood not necessarily the online beggar jodeci: |
Re: What Could Be Wike’s Ulterior Motives For The Lockdown by Taich(m): 12:24pm On May 08, 2020 |
Dakad: If they can do this, I am sure we will achieve more with this lockdown, few days ago, Shell/Npdc If donated test kits to Rivers State, I hooe they can use it and achieve their earlier plan. |
Re: What Could Be Wike’s Ulterior Motives For The Lockdown by valentineuwakwe(m): 12:30pm On May 08, 2020 |
I stay in Portharcourt and all I can say is that the Governor has lost focus in handling this covid 19 matter in the state whose case is now 17..... instead he has infused 'one man show', 'rascality' and 'my word is final' acts!..... why lockdown some parts of the state n leave others, well I believe by Sunday it will be over |

Taich: I want you to know that the 2 machines donated by Shell is still locked up in the state government facility because Wike want the machines to be stationed at the state hospital(BMH). The hospital will take weeks before they will start operating those machines. UPTH has upgraded their PCR machine and the one given to them by the FG and they’ve started testing as at Wednesday. They can test 50 samples a day. |
