Wike is not wicked. There must be consequences for bad behavior. Anyone who flouts the laws should be punished.

Thank You, no mind these cretins wey dey talk nonsense. Inasmuch as I don't like the lockdown that much, certain directives must be in place to curtail the spread of Co-vid19, cause the virus is on a high rise.

topcatking:
Wike for president please

Yeah and Ayodele Fayose as his Vice President

He has no legal backing and constitutional right to demolish the hotels for flouting the lockdown rules. It is abuse of power!

You either sue or fine with legal conditions.

You either sue or fine with government conditions attach with it.

Were this to be buhari doing this the people praising wike right now would have screamed blue murder.I'm certain every one here has flouted one lockdown rule or another.
He's action still is illegal,and he will clearly loose out when he gets sued.At the end of the day it's with Rivers State money the hotel will be rebuilt with.There are other ways of appropriately meting out a punishment.

"He's action still is illegal,and he will clearly loose out when he gets sued" He is the Executive Governor of the state he has the right to enforce judgement to those who flouted the laws of the state. I'm with wike on this.

LegendaryLover:
why not just shut-down the hotel instead of demolishing. Then make them pay heavy fines to reopen when covid pandemic is finally dealt with. It shouldn't just be about yielding political power with ur big head & stomach, pls think economic & environmental impact also.

He talks when he is angry.
Thats his only problem

mrvitalis:

He is now the judiciary that can pronounce judgement ? The owners of those hotel go just get different court injunctions till he leaves office ....

I thought they said Buhari is a dictator, now that they have seen the real dictator why are they keeping mum?

The above is not the problem with Wike. I feel it is in times like this, that we need those who can wield and exercise their power. We are in very desperate times and no more than in desperate time are desperate measures needed. In some States, Dangote trucks are used to import the viruses. We must be watchful and pray for a governor like Wike. If we had him as president, he'd stopped the virus from flying in. If the south west had him, they'd shut all the exits from Lagos and probably have lesser cases... Wike is signalling to the powerful and those held high, that the life of his people matter; and it would not be traded as is done in Kano and other states, for the economic benefit of a certain few.

That's how it starts, very soon he will start arresting people with court order, then he becomes a full blown tyrant. Na small small bush dey take turn forest.


Never support a tyrant they get worse with time.

Be careful what you wish for sir, this to me is a violation of human rights, everyone is entitled to a fair hearing, if one man holds all the power in a state where he is the accuser, judge, punisher and executioner, then it's no longer democracy

No state deserves a tyranny government

That will not stop Coronavirus.

He should make the hotel owners pay heavy fines not demolish the hotels.

He'll not just fail, but very woefully!

realvikash:
I see some Nigerian's condemning his actions. I don't understand, what is wrong with you people, wetin Una want exactly. Cause insofar as government is concerned or law is concerned, the governor of a state gave and announced an order backed by sanctions which he painstakingly noted out too. People obeyed, but some people consciously flouted the order, now he punishes them according to the aforementioned order he gave, and you guys are condemning him?? Did the citizens who obeyed his directives have two heads ??.
What is law or order if it is not backed by sanctions?
The guy is just trying to protect his state jare

It is you that is not getting it. No one is saying that defaulters should not be punished. However, punishment should be commensurate.

Consider this, if you, realvikash, were driving your SUV and you accidentally flouted the traffic light rules, would you maintain this your opinion if FRSC were to seize your car and physically destroy it completely?

Should the punishment for slander or libel or even fraudulent acts be the death sentence? Cos that's pretty much what Wike is doing.

Is that what the law says should happen in this circumstance??

Think about the general repercussions of the decision to demolish a well established business.

There are better sanctions that would serve as deterrence, please

tuzle:
Don't u think lock down in just some selected states is kind of useless, for example ogun state is on lock down but Lagos is not, after the lock down at ogun, people will still move from Lagos to ogun thereby carrying the virus back to ogun. Doesn't that kills the motive of the lock down

how will they move the virus to ogun from lagos when they can't get into ogun due to the border lockdown

Just like Buhari, Wike can as well disobey court orders should he be sued and loses.

State security supersedes the Rule of Law nah.

No biggie!

Why demolish?!
This is counter-productive. Money was spent to build, money will be spent to demolish.
Why not convert to something useful.

I dont blame you if it were to be your hotel you won't be saying such. Demolish a business because they did not obey a law. Really ? And you are praising him for that. Then Rivers is not different from North Korea. Do you see why our old politicians are still the best..... imagine Wike as president.... you know the rest of the story

Demolish ke? Is this a personal beef o what?

chiemmanuel:
Federal Government should just settle this man, so he can rest

His Hosana Singers are ignorant of this fact.

Risentouch:
You don't need to blame Wike so much for this his style of power system because a typical pH guy will understand that Wike has their well-being in mind. And this kind of madness he is exhibiting is what suits their nature of stubbornness

But when Buhari does same, una go wail...make una dey fool unaself

He shouldn't do it.
It's not good.

The Rivers State Government headed by Nyesom Wike is set to demolish Prudent Hotel and Etemeteh Hotel.

No, that's not what he's doing. As far as he gave a directive before it happened, that's a big difference. Nigerians normally no dey hear word. They like flouting orders. So this punishments will serve as deterrents to future defaulters

Covid19 carriers are hiding in hotels hence the reason for close down

misano:


That will not stop Coronavirus.

But it will limit the spread. Na in two weeks time, Lagos go know wetin dem do dem self. The way cases go high ehn

Wike!Wike!!wike!!!. This man shd be very careful the way he goes abt lording that state becuz power is transient. Most of those guys are self made hardened militant commanders who made there ill gotten wealth from the creeks and establish business to make a living. Wike will not stay in office for ever. He most be prepared for what will come next in his life when he eventually leaves that office. Boys go find am reach lasgidi follow there enter express. Except he is planing on going for exile from Rivers. He is bitting more than he can chew. Arab nonsense. Demolished people source of lives. What happen to sanction with heavy fined. Wike stop this rough play abeg. But on a serious note this man na him fit Nigerians ,wike be president things will change for goods, painstakingly. Places like lagos key will have been inside 3rd midland bridge by now if Wike. Happens to be lagos state governor.Wike the Action man. Talk and do mannerless man

Hey checkout...I dey go these both hotels
