Wike Is Not Involved In Rivers LG Election Crisis - Ex-NBA President, Okocha

In the aftermath of the local government election in Rivers State, Opunabo Inko-Tariah, former Special Adviser to ex-Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has recounted statements made by the now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on the position of godfatherism.​


In an interview with ARISE NEWS, Inko-Tariah described the outcome of the local government area election as a triumph over the long-standing influence of political godfatherism.

According to him, the people of Rivers State have sent a clear message that underscores their tiredness of political interference and manipulation by so-called political godfathers.

Inko-Tariah further expressed disappointment that Wike, who once condemned godfatherism, now appears to be attempting to impose it in Rivers State.

He said, “We have put an end to the issue of political monstrosity. This is a clear case of the venom of a viper can do nothing to the back of a tortoise. It is not all about being licentious and braggadocious. Action speaks louder than words.

“This will serve as a lesson to future political Godfathers, that Nigerians are sick and tired of Godfatherism in this country.

“The FCT minister was the same person when he was a sitting minister, who said that what happened in Lagos state in the case of Ambode will never happen in Rivers State. I have the tape here. We are talking about the issue of Godfatherism. He said it was never going to happen in Rivers State and that he is one man that will never impose a governor or dictate to his successor what to do, that once he is out, he will go and rest.

“I am a little bit surprised that the same person who gave all these warnings and said all these facts, is the same person who wants to impose the issue of Godfatherism in Rivers State.”
