Chai! Wetin dey happen for Rivers State? Politics don turn tede tede as Deputy Governor, Professor Ngozi Odu, don jump enter All Progressives Congress (APC). Na dis kind gbas gbos wey dey happen wey make people dey wonder wetin go happen next!

Just last month, Governor Siminalayi Fubara and plenty lawmakers from Rivers State don chook their leg for APC side, and now Odu dey follow them carry her kettles go APC join dem. E be like say na party-switching na wetin dey ginger for dis season. Odu talk say she don complete registration for APC for Akabuka, Ward 8, Unit 11 on Sunday. She dey carry per head dey urge people to register join APC make everybody fit show love for President Bola Tinubu and Governor Fubara.

She yan say, “Abeg, make una join me for APC, after all, na we get this joy wey dey ground.” As she dey waka around local government area, people no dey waste time at all; dem don gather follow am, dey shout “Where you go, we go follow, anywhere Governor Fubara go, na so we dey go.” Wetin go fit stop dem?

This area don turn serious political arena as last year don shake ground for Rivers. PDP wey dey manage the state since 1999 don dey face yawa. Na 2025 be the year wey people begin dey switch allegiance like fashion trend, sef. From Port Harcourt to Yenagoa, no be small wahala for the party wey don call dem “big boys” no more!

As e be now, emergency rule for Rivers wey come after Governor Fubara and Wike face off don shake dem well. Dis wahala don lead to division for Rivers Assembly and dem don appoint Ibok-Ette Ibas as sole administrator. Na serious level wahala wey don fetch national attention. Wike wey dey shout from FCT, don promise say him no go allow Fubara win re-election for 2027.

He don fresh everybody memory say Fubara don betray am twice, say dem no go fit do am again. “You go call me? abeg o! No be so we dey run matter for Rivers State.” Now, nobody sabi wen this gbege go end, as Wike don claim say dem dey take him mandate play ball.

But for Akwa Ibom and the rest South-South, wetin dey happen? Na new grassroots awakening dey happen, or na just elite people dey show their true color? From health sector wahala for Akwa Ibom to shout for road dem no fit repair, all dis dey show say people don tire.

This na serious matter, as na the people go decide wetin go happen next. Whether na APC go still dey run things for future, or PDP go find road regain control we no sabi. But one thing we fit conclude be say Rivers and South-South don enter serious political phase, and e go sweet as we dey watch how dem go swap IG for political rings.
