President Tinubu Should Caution Wike Over His Ijaw Comment – INC

The Ijaw National Congress has come out to appeal to President Bola Tinubu to call the FCT Minister, Mr Nyesom Wike to order over his comments on the Ijaw.

Recall that Wike allegedly said the Ijaw people were a minority of minorities in Rivers and other South South States except Bayelsa, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to the National Publicity Secretary, INC, Chief Ezonebi Oyakemeagbegha, the congress has taken note of the FCT minister’s remarks and they can only call on Tinubu to caution and redirect Wike to focus on his ministerial duties.

He added that the INC remains committed to preserving the harmony enjoyed by all in the Niger Delta region.

His words, “We will maintain peace and stability as we call on President Tinubu to caution him and redirect his focus to his ministerial duties.

The INC remains committed to preserving the harmony enjoyed by all in the Niger Delta region.

We have taken note of the recent remarks made by the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.

Given his eight-year tenure as governor of Rivers we expected a more informed understanding of the state’s history.

They are the largest ethnic group in Rivers with eight local government areas, and also not a minority in Delta.

The Ijaw have consistently advocated for fairness and equity in the Niger Delta region and the South-South, and we will not be swayed by individual attempts to provoke us.”

WOW.
