We know, you were going for Sim's jugular with an impeachment. But some losers said that the president was wrong and unlawful.

Maybe he is expecting to be consulted because he made ebilokan’s Aso Rock access easier by kicking Obi out of PDP.

2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury

Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.

One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.

Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.

Why is it that this minister must have his media chats in a form suggestive that he sees himself as an emperor. The resplendent throne on which he always sits, with a carefully selected few journalists almost at his knees with the flags around him etc.

This is not the way counterparts in even much wealthier nations interact with the press.

Well, for a minister that drives a Rolls Royce around (despite having no other career than public service all his life), what else can be expected?

They were busy shouting dictator, democracy is raped up and down, not knowing Tinubu save Fubara's Azz. He would have been an ex Governor of Rivers state by now.

Fubara has come to see the state of emergency as a time out session that saved him from imminent and deservedly so, impeachment .

Same Fubara is using his suspension to make amends with the aggrieved of the House who he (Fubara) held in contempt .

Fubara has now learnt the hard way that those from outside Rivers urging him on a war path of self destruction were only using him to fight Wike.

By the time Fubara returns to Government House , the state of affairs will improve and he will then realise that as an elected governor , he wasn't an emperor and that the legislative branch exists for a reason as provided in the constitution.

What is sure is that , Fubara will never allow any obidient rascal influence him again.

shebi that is what you us to believe

In history of Nig. how successive is impeaching a state governor, even amateur Peter Obi won in court

Impeachment processes are cucumber some and unduly met in all cases cos it is all about dirty politics,

An impeachment wont have paid Wike, cos at the end Fubara would have come out as champion .. naa children wike fit dey fool with reverse psychology

Believe politicians at ur own peril. Wike is just trying to deceive the gullible like u guys. Tinubu needed no state of emergency brouhaha to stop Wike from impeaching Fubara. An order from Tinubu to Wike to stop the nonsense in Rivers state would have done the work. Except ur saying Tinubu is scared of calling Wike out.

Fubara now understand that president Tinubu did well for him because the plan of wike was to have him impeached but the president outsmarted wike. I don't expect you to believe only those who put on the lence of politics will understand this
