Bob argues that the governor’s actions show a serious lack of respect for Wike, who was instrumental in Fubara’s ascent to power.
Speaking to TVC, Honourable Bob drew attention to what he described as an emperor-like mentality exhibited by Governor Fubara since the early days of his administration. “To be honest with you, the governor has demonstrated acts of disrespect and total disregard for Wike,” Bob said. “As soon as he came into office, he drove a wedge between himself and Wike. He made himself unreachable and unapproachable.”
Bob recounted an incident illustrating the governor’s inaccessibility, which he claims was part of a broader strategy to misinform the public about the reasons for the perceived conflict with Wike. “There was a particular instance where nobody could reach him and speak to him,” he added. “He came into office with the mentality that ‘I am a law unto myself.’ And you are seeing that in the actions he has exhibited in Rivers State over the last couple of months.”
“He has been using profane language and aiming jibes at his predecessor. But before that, he used a lot of proxies to create an atmosphere of disinformation that was very negative against Wike from the get-go,” Bob stated. “He did that as a way to prepare the grounds to take over Rivers State.
