A recent press release from Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has described the stoppage of the Federal Government’s monthly allocations to Rivers State as “Black Wednesday” and a declaration of war against the Rivers state.
The Federal High Court Abuja’s decision to restrain the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) from releasing funds to the Rivers State government has been met with outrage and condemnation.
Many Nigerians are concerned about the impact of this move on the state’s development and the potential for destabilization.
Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a concerned citizenry, has criticized Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Barr. Nyesom Wike, for his role in the crisis, accusing him of hatred for Rivers State and its people.
In a press release by him, he highlighted the potential consequences of this move, including the destabilization of Nigeria’s democratic governance.
The situation has sparked reactions from many Nigerians on social media, with some calling for calm and others expressing concern about the potential for chaos in Rivers State, Nigeria. The press release has urged President Bola Tinubu to intervene and remedy the situation by calling Wike to order.
As the situation unfolds, many are left wondering about the potential consequences of this move and the impact on Nigeria’s democracy.
Will the Federal Government’s decision to withhold funds from Rivers State lead to further destabilization, or will a resolution be reached? Only time will tell.
