Sole Administrator Has Set Rivers On Keg Of Gunpowder — Secondus

Former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Prince Uche Secondus, says operations and decisions of the Sole Administrator of Rivers State, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ette Ibas have set the state on a keg of gunpowder.

Secondus said this in his Easter message by his Special Adviser on Media, Ike Abonyi, calling for fervent prayers for divine intervention in the affairs of Nigeria.

According to him, those playing God in the state and toying with the destiny of the citizens of the state must beware of the “wrath and consequences of the almighty God.”

He urged President Bola Tinubu to be guided by the voice of reason by restoring the suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

Th former PDP chairman saod, “I urge President Bola Tinubu to refuse to be led astray on the situation in Rivers State and should instead be guided by the voice of reason by restoring Governor Similaya Fubara who has the mandate of the people. 

“The Sole Administrator’s activities have set Rivers State on a keg of gunpowder, and I weep for my state. Sadly Rivers State has found itself on the ugly side of history over the control of Resources and the state by one man.

“My special appreciation goes to the Ijaw nation, its leaders and people, the indisputable fourth largest ethnic group in Nigeria with over 30 LGAs across seven states, for managing the provocations.”

On the worsening insecurity across the country, he asked Nigerians “to be unrelenting in their prayers because God’s solution is the final and worthwhile.”

“I urge Christians to continue to show love and piety, among themselves as Christ’s resurrection at Easter brings hope to mankind knowing that after Good Friday of disappointment and the death of Christ comes an Sunday.

“Easter period reminds us of brotherly love, peaceful co-existence, tolerance, honesty, humility, justice, equity and fairness to all without discrimination as contained in the Scriptures.

“This particular injunction is important to us as a nation as we continue to contend with the challenges of nation-building, bad economy, insecurity and poor leadership,” Secondus said.
