A group, the Integrity Youth Alliance (IYA) has urged Governor Nyesom Wike, of Rivers State to stop diverting public attention from issues concerning his alleged controversial comments preceding the December 10 re-run Assembly election in the state.
In a statement by the secretary general, Danjuma Lamido, the group accused the governor of a deliberate attempt to bury the issue since an online news platform raised the matter.
“We find this so ridiculous of Wike because the same Wike was an aide of Rt. Honourable Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi during his administration in Rivers State,’ the group said.
“We are challenging Governor Nyesom Wike to prove to the world that Kachi Nwokocha is an aide of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi or else face a legal action within seven days for defamation of character of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi,” it stated.
“We therefore call on the Inspector General Police, the DG of DSS and the National Security Adviser to swiftly move into action to probe the killings to avoid future occurrence of killing innocent citizens and security agents, who are supposed to protect the unity of our great country,” the group stated.
