Nyesom Wike’s Problem With Rotimi Amaechi Started When He Wanted To Go To The Senate — Caleb Fubara
In a recent discussion on News Central TV, political commentator and author Caleb Fubara explored the origins of the ongoing political strife in Rivers State, linking current disputes to long-standing rivalries among major political figures in the area. He suggested that personal goals and the influence of political mentors have repeatedly overshadowed real governance, resulting in the exclusion of everyday citizens.
Fubara stated, “Nyesom Wike’s conflict with Rotimi Amaechi began when he sought a Senate position.” He elaborated that the disagreement between the former governor, Nyesom Wike, and Rotimi Amaechi, another key political leader in Rivers, established a basis for power struggles that continue to impact the political environment of the state.
Fubara pointed out that this ongoing rivalry has influenced the present tension between Wike and Governor Siminalayi Fubara, including the threats of impeachment spearheaded by Speaker Martins Amaewhule in the Rivers State House of Assembly. He claimed that these conflicts have fostered a “multi-centre” governance model where power is contested instead of being used for the benefit of the public.
The analyst further emphasized the effects of this culture of self-serving politics, mentioning missed economic possibilities, halted infrastructure initiatives, and untapped natural resources, including the ports in the state. According to Fubara, struggles for leadership have continually taken priority over development needs, leaving the people of Rivers to suffer the repercussions.
In conclusion, he urged the public to seek accountability and move away from politics dominated by powerful figures, stressing that ending the cycle of historical conflicts is crucial for achieving stability, good governance, and economic development in Rivers State.
