Hon. Boma Goodhead, The lawmaker representing Akuku/Asari Toru Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives and others, during a protest, dared the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike to return to Rivers State.

Goodhead and the others also called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to call the former Governor of Rivers State to order, vowing never to fold their hands and watch the FCT Minister pocket Rivers State.

During the protest, Goodhead speaking on behalf of other protesters said:

“I want to send a clear message to the Federal Government of Nigeria,” Goodhead said.

“Tinubu believes that Wike delivered Rivers State to him but even Wike failed in his unit. He failed in his ward and even in his LGA.

“We are here to tell Ahmed Bola Tinubu to call Wike to order because the next time he comes into Rivers State to disturb the peace of the state we’ll not fold our hands and watch.

“Wike should come to Rivers State and we’ll show him what it means to hold Rivers State. We dare you, to come back to Rivers State again if you’re a man.”

The political crisis ricking the state has deepened in the past weeks, leading to the demolition of the state assembly complex and a gale of resignation from the Fubara led government.
