"WIKE IS A TYRANT WHO RULED RIVERS STATE FOR EIGHT YEARS. THE VAMPIRES AND VULTURES ACTING AS HIS MESSENGERS CANNOT FORCE GOV FUBARA OUT OF OFFICE," - PRINCE JOHN WARNS.

Port Harcourt Pressure Group Condemns Impeachment Move Against Fubara, Backs Governor

The Port Harcourt Township United Pressure Group has strongly condemned the Rivers State House of Assembly over its notice of impeachment against Governor Siminalayi Fubara, describing the move as a renewed attempt to plunge the state into political crisis.

Speaking during a press briefing in Port Harcourt, the President of the group, Prince Tamunokuro John, said the lawmakers led by the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule, were once again placing Rivers State on a “dangerous path,” similar to events that previously resulted in a state of emergency.

Prince John recalled that the earlier political crisis, which led to emergency rule between March and September last year, caused significant social, economic, political, financial, and administrative losses to the state. He warned that any attempt to repeat such actions would be harmful to the people of Rivers State.
According to him, Governor Fubara has demonstrated a strong commitment to peace, stability, and development, stressing that the governor’s “Rivers First” agenda reflects his dedication to the welfare of ordinary citizens rather than personal power or wealth.

He accused the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, of orchestrating the ongoing political tension out of fear of political irrelevance, insisting that Rivers State belongs to its people and not to any individual or group.

Prince John further stated that Governor Fubara has made several sacrifices in the interest of peace, including allowing local government elections that produced council chairmen and councillors linked to Wike’s political camp, dissolving his cabinet, and later removing the Secretary to the State Government, Dr. Tammy Danagogo.
He questioned what more the governor could do to maintain peace, noting that few leaders would tolerate the level of political pressure allegedly directed at Governor Fubara.

The pressure group reaffirmed its loyalty to the governor, declaring unconditional support for him regardless of party affiliation. Prince John described Governor Fubara as a “divine mistake” whose leadership, he said, is transforming the economic, social, and political landscape of Rivers State.

He concluded by insisting that Governor Siminalayi Fubara remains the legitimate governor of Rivers State and warned that no group or political interest could force him out of Government House.

WIKE-LED PDP FACTION GIVES APC NATIONAL SECRETARY 48 HOURS TO APOLOGISE

Image
The faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) loyal to Nyesom Wike has asked Ajibola Basiru, national secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), to apologise to the FCT minister within 48 hours. On Monday, Basiru asked Wike to resign his appointment and focus on what he described as an “obsession” with Rivers state politics. Wike had asked the APC national secretary to stay off Rivers politics. In a statement issued on Tuesday and signed by Etim Isong, factional zonal publicity secretary of the PDP south-south, the faction condemned Basiru’s “personal attack” on Wike.  The group said Basiru’s remarks were inappropriate and capable of undermining the administration of President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election. The statement said it was perplexing that Basiru, who “failed to produce a governor for the APC” in Osun state in 2023, would seek to question the political relevance of Wike in Rivers state. The faction said Basiru’s suggestion that Wike’s suppor...

The rally, which drew party faithful and pro-government activists, was marked by strong criticism of the former Rivers State governor’s conduct and stern warnings to the presidency over what the groups described as a growing threat to party unity and national stability. The protesters, who converged near the APC National Secretariat, said their action was motivated by what they termed “deep concern for the stability of the APC, the security of our nation, and the sanctity of democratic principles.” Carrying placards and chanting pro-Tinubu slogans, the demonstrators insisted that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu must act swiftly to preserve discipline within the ...

"YOUR DAYS IN THE OFFICE ARE NUMBERED. YOU WILL EITHER FACE IMPEACHMENT OR DENIED PARTY TICKET FOR A SECOND TERM" - PROPHET ITUEN TELLS FUBARA

Image
Prophet Ekong Ituen has issued a stern warning to Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, stating that his tenure in office may be coming to an end due to alleged neglect of spiritual guidance. According to the cleric, Governor Fubara allegedly ignored several spiritual directives aimed at safeguarding his political future.  Prophet Ituen claimed that revelations in the spiritual realm indicate that the governor could either face impeachment or be denied the party ticket for a second term. He further called on Nigerians to pray fervently to avert what he described as an impending political crisis in Rivers State. The prophet also referenced an earlier prophecy in which he reportedly predicted the governor’s impeachment attempt. He noted that the Rivers State House of Assembly acted in line with that prediction by serving the governor a notice of impeachment, adding that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu later intervened by declaring a state of emergency, which ultimately pr...

AFCON: VICTOR OSIMHEN REPORTEDLY THREATENED TO LEAVE SUPER EAGLES CAMP FOLLOWING VIRAL OUTBURST TOWARDS TEAMMATE LOOKMAN

Image
Victor Osimhen reportedly thr£atened to quit Nigeria’s Afcon squad after an on-pitch cl@sh with Ademola Lookman, Fulham forward, during their 4–0 win over Mozambique. The incident followed earlier teamwork as Lookman set up two of Osimhen’s goals, but frustration grew when passes didn’t reach him. Osimhen confronted Lookman aggressively, pushed aside captain Wilfred Ndidi, and was even restrained by a Mozambique defender before being substituted for Moses Simon. After the match, he left the stadium early, dropped his accreditation, and said he was “done” with the national team, planning to return to Turkey. The episode raises concerns over Osimhen’s temperament, coming after a previous clash with former coach Finidi George. Meanwhile, Lookman remains Afcon’s standout performer with seven goal contributions, but Nigeria’s victory has been overshadowed by the potential crisis with their star striker.
