Ikenga Ugochinyere, a member of the House of Representatives, has come under fire from Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Nyesom Wike for his frequent appearances on national television. Wike asserted that Ugochinyere talks about the law without knowing it and accused him of attempting to “suck” Rivers State.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
In a video posted by Channels TV, Wike said, “I hear this boy ranting every day on television, I don’t know his name now, he wears a red cap, he said he is in the House of Representatives. You will see him talking every day. He talks every day about law, and I don’t know the law he is talking about.”
Wike’s comments suggest that he views Ugochinyere as a nuisance who is seeking attention by constantly speaking about Rivers State and the law. He advised that nobody should respond to Ugochinyere’s comments, implying that he is not worth engaging with.
Wike’s criticism of Ugochinyere may be seen as a response to the lawmaker’s recent comments about Rivers State. Ugochinyere has been vocal about his opinions on the state’s governance and has criticized Wike’s administration on several occasions.
However, Wike’s approach to addressing Ugochinyere’s comments has been criticized by some as dismissive and condescending. By calling Ugochinyere a “ranting boy,” Wike may be seen as belittling the lawmaker’s views and undermining his credibility.
The video has sparked a reaction, with some people defending Ugochinyere’s right to free speech and others criticizing Wike’s approach to addressing the issue. The exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between Wike and Ugochinyere, and raises questions about the limits of free speech and the responsibilities of public officials.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
