Ex Rivers Head of Servic; George Nweke Accuses Fubara of Mastereminding Violence and Destruction to Prevent Impeachment

The former Head of Rivers State Civil Service, Dr. George Nwaeke, has said the suspended governor, Siminalayi Fubara, ordered the bombing of the state House of Assembly complex in 2023.

While speaking with News men on Friday, Nwaeke said Fubara did it to check his impeachment by lawmakers loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

Nwaeke added that he was at the government house “when a bag of money was handed over to Edison for that operation, though I do not know the amount inside”.

Speaking in the explosive interview, Dr. George Nwaeke, the Rivers HoS that resigned said: “I want to tell Rivers people today that the house of assembly complex in Moscow Road was clearly brought down by Edison Ehie under the instructions of Gov Siminilayi Fubara.

“I challenge him to an open confrontation and I will throw more light on it.

“A day after that incident, I almost resigned but I was very scared because I know the power of a sitting governor and he knew that I am aware of the whole plan and that I am discomforted with the unconscionable act and deliberate posture of innocence and mien of a sheep.

“Another attempt was also made to destroy the residential quarters of the house of assembly members.

Delta State Government Reacts to Viral Agbor School of Nursing Video

The State Government has clarified a viral video that misrepresented the First Lady’s two-day tour to improve healthcare delivery in the state.

According Delta State’s Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, CHARLES ANIAGWU, the video does not adequately reflect the events of the visit.

Mr. ANIAGWU added that, contrary to what the video shows, the First Lady did not visit the School of Nursing in Agbor. Instead, she attended an event where nurses expected to receive medical kits but were disappointed when they discovered the kits were mostly for midwives.

The incident occurred on Thursday,when the event’s Master of Ceremony introduced OLUREMI TINUBU as everyone’s mother, a customary title for First Ladies in Nigeria. However, the students responded in unison, Na your mama be this, meaning this is your mother, refusing to accept the designation.

The commissioner emphasised that the video was taken out of context and does not reflect the true atmosphere of the event.
