My people, e shock as Rivers State Government don deny say dem block Wike and im people from using Yakubu Gowon Stadium for rally. Dem say the stadium dey under construction, but Wike no gree hear word!
No be small matter o! Nyesom Wike, wey be Minister of Federal Capital Territory, don vex well-well. E dey para say if dem no allow dem use the stadium, dem go carry body enter by force. Na wetin we fit call rally matter wey don turn to wahala!
The whole gbas gbos happen when Wike dey inaugurate coordinators for his group wey dey support President Bola Tinubu. According to am, dem don apply to use the stadium, but the state government don turn dem down. Wetin Wike talk? He talk say, “Next time we apply, and dem no approve am, we go break am by force.” Na serious gist be this!
As the matter dey hot, the Rivers State Government come release statement wey talk say those allegations na wetin dem fit call “false and misleading.” Honour Sirawoo, wey be Permanent Secretary for Ministry of Information, stand gidigba say e don inspect the stadium and e no safe for public use at all.
Sirawoo carry im people go check the place, and dem see say if crowd enter there, e fit damage underground pipes wey dey beneath the pitch. No be play matter o! Dem also talk say Monimichelle, wey dey handle the stadium renovation, no go allow any political gathering for there.
Wike dey use this whole drama show say im still get ground for Rivers State politics, even as him dey try blend politics with his Renewed Hope group wey dey support Tinubu. But as e be now, di rivalry between Wike and di current governor, Siminalayi Fubara, dey make matter hot, with each one wan show who get power.
And no forget say this wahala get history. Na as Wike and Fubara dey struggle for who get control over the All Progressives Congress (APC) for Rivers State. Wike dey insist say grassroots matter pass everything! Oyibo say power belong to di people, but for here, na who fit use am dey cause change.
Political analysts dey look this whole drama say e no just about stadium matter; e be like way of testing who fit control Rivers for 2027 general elections. Everybody dey form coalition, but na only time go show how strong dem be.
For all who dey watch, make dem get ready for more action as Wike and Fubara dey face off. Dis na Naija politics wey no dey ever dull! Who go win this stadium drama? Keep your ears open!
