FUBARA: WHY TINUBU IS THE POLITICAL JAGABAN – RUFAI
• Insists doors are shutting in the face of Wike
By PHC Telegraph
A popular TV anchor on AriseNews, Rufai Oseni has explained why President Bola Tinubu is widely regarded as the ‘political Jagaban’
Analyzing the political situation in Rivers State on the Morning Show on Tuesday, Rufai said the President is known as the Jagaban because of his deep knowledge of political issues and the way he relies on loads of experience to handle them.
The TV anchor observed that Tinubu who averted an impeachment move in Rivers State has been studying options that are available to him, saying from the look of things the President now has options on how to proceed in the highly volatile state.
Wike has been warning APC leaders, appalled by the attitude of the Minister and his supporters towards the State Governor, to stay clear of Rivers State where he is presently embroiled in a power struggle with Fubara.
Seaking on set, Rufai credited President Bola Tinubu with effectively navigating the Rivers terrain, saying when he refused to endorse the plan to remove the governor from office, he was already steps ahead of Wike.
He insisted that Tinubu has found the option. The option which Tinubu has been looking for, Rufai declared on the Morning Show, is Fubara
Wike has been reminded by APC leaders that he is neither the leader nor a member of the party, with the National Secretary of the APC urging him to resign as Minister so he can face what looks like an obsession with power in Rivers State.
At Oyigbo, Wike had seemingly lashed out at top APC leaders who are insisting that Fubara – 001 – is the leader of Rivers State.
Wike alleged that the N600 billion in the kitty of the Rivers State has become the key reason why party leaders are throwing their weight behind Fubara.
Although Wike may not know it, he has apparently revealed the fact that the fight with Fubara is not only driven by the issue of who heads the power elite, but who controls the State’s awesome resources.
“Na the moni be the Koko“, said a source, ” Wike and his group are worried Fubara is unwilling to share the money. ”
