WIKE DARES FG
”I don't take orders from Abuja. If FG want fight then I will give it to them. If they want to work with me, then they should come and beg me. I will not go to Abuja to beg them.”
”If I like, I will lockdown Rivers State indefinitely and nothing will happen.” pic.twitter.com/slRu0gywNc

Is this lockdown only for the poor??
It’s unfortunate for someone to go against the lockdown rules of the government at this time. The other time it was caverton now it’s Exxonmobil. The lockdown is not for the poor alone, it includes everybody. Gov Wike is absolutely right… pic.twitter.com/DzsFE95zNh— Hon. Kelechi Nwogu (@honkelechinwogu) April 17, 2020
When Tinubu was the governor of Lagos state, he didn't do half of what Wike is currently doing to the federal government. Obasanjo can't denied how he suffered Lagosians, and you said Buhari is a tyrant.

I don't blame @GovWike, I blame those cowards in @OfficialAPCNg like Magnus Abe who joined hands with Wike to fight Amaechi and impose Wike on Rivers people.
Now they're all feeling the heat. Imagine Wike the dictator being the President of Nigeria?
