Fubara is Wike’s political venture, says Tony Okocha

The Director of the All Reformists Congress Overseer Board in Waterways State, Tony Okocha, on Friday, cautioned pundits against mutilating the story of the emergency shaking the state, demanding that Lead representative Siminalayi Fubara is the speculation of the Pastor of the Government Capital Region, Nyesom Wike.

Okocha uncovered this during a media conference with columnists at the party’s public secretariat in Abuja.

Okocha who filled in as the Head of Staff to previous Lead representative Rotimi Amaechi from 2007 to 2015, expressed that he feels humiliated each time he pays attention to a radio examination and hears the moderators doling out a one-sided story.

He said, “I can let you know that the discussions happening around the state are slanted. They need to hear our side of the story. Certain individuals are accusing us at the APC and in any event, acquiring the FCT Priest for the emergency in Streams. They are holding us in disdain. Normally, I understand what anyone will say is that he (Wike) has done eight years; for what reason would he say he is not permitting another person to run his own? In any case, that isn’t the story.

“No one makes a venture and discards it; the business will come up short. Lead representative Fubara is Wike’s political venture. I probably said this multiple occasions. This is on the grounds that he lifted him from ground zero and put him where he is today. Fubara was never a legislator; he was a government worker.

“He was taken from a condition of relative lack of definition in his Neighborhood Government to a political crescendo, which is the place of lead representative in a state like Waterways. Thus, it’s anything but an instance of Wike choking out anyone in Waterways; it is only an instance of Lead representative Sim Fubara versus a similar Lead representative Sim Fubara. He is the lead representative. In Ikwerre’s speech, there is an aphorism that says ‘You are the man that holds the sweet potato and the blade.'”

Proceeding, Okocha additionally faulted the lead representative for scorning the intercession of President Bola Tinubu and the court request guiding him to re-present the 2024 spending plan before the Martins Amaewhule-drove State Place of Gathering.

He said that instead of following the concurred goal, Fubara permitted his supporters to go free by undermining and endeavoring to coerce the president.

“There was a mediation by Mr President through an eight-point plan. The president said the lead representative was off-base by introducing the spending plan to a four-part gathering well beyond 27 others, and that he ought to return and once again present it. Fubara acknowledged and told Mr President that being whenever he first was meeting with him, anything he expressed relating to Waterways, he would submit to.

“He likewise made a solicitation, and the president requested that he state it. The solicitation was that the people who worked with him from his side ought not be criticized or rebuffed. The president guaranteed him that nothing of the sort would occur, as the gathering was for compromise. From that point onward, every possible kind of accounts emerged. Some said he endorsed under coercion; others guaranteed he was trapped. The fifth feature writers were likewise lurking in the shadows for monetary interests.

“Yet, did he carry out the choice of Mr President and the judgment of the court to re-present the spending plan to the Place of Gathering under Martin Amaewhule? Presently, certain individuals are approaching attempting to slant the story that the people who got the new judgment are foes of Streams. However, is it ideal for the lead representative to run a state without a spending plan? It is even risky for us as a state since you don’t have a breaking point for spending,” he cautioned.
