Dem get different ideas on how to do tings, If you wan know more about wetin dey happen bitwin Wike.

” One man wan control APC, and still wan control PDP for one state?

One pesin wan bi oga patapata for APC and PDP for one state?

 Na so dem dey do am?”

“Wetin happen na say we bi political friends bifor, but now we no dey togeda again.”

The ting wey cos our break-up bi say him support APC for 2023 presidential election, instead of PDP.

“Bifor, we bin dey vibe togeda on politics, but now we no longer dey on same page.

Him support for APC during last presidential election bi the ting wey scatter our relationship, since I dey support PDP.”

“As Mr. Okpara praise Mr. Fubara say him no fear, him go ahead hold local government election for state, even wen PDP and APC no wan participate.

Him talk say governor no get option, him must do am.

“Him talk say we suppose give credit to Governor Fubara bicos by di end of di month, any state wey no get democratically elected local government structure no go receive money.

Wetin bi di implication?

Di implication bi say, civil servants wey dey work for local government level no go receive salary, families go sofa.”

“Make we hail Governor Fubara bicos by month end, any state wey no elect local government officials democratically no go get money from federal government.

Dat means say local government workers no go collect salary, families go dey sofa.”

Governor Fubara no get option for dis mata, him sacrifice, make sure election hold, instead of follow party line, so state go still get money for allocations.

Dat means say Rivers State go still get monthly allocation, and local government workers go collect salary.

Him do dis bicos Supreme Court rule say dem must hold local government election.

Na good ting him do so o, rivers pipo go binefit.

Make we no call am anti-party bicos Governor Fubara still dey for Pipos Democratic Party (PDP).

Him talk am for im speech yesterday say him still bi PDP member, but him party decide no participate for di election.

Now, Rivers State na PDP state, but him party no gree participate, so him decide to hold di election.

Dat na why him go ahead with di election, even wen PDP no gree join.
