Fubara has denied the alleged plot to bomb oil facilities and pact with Bala Mohammed.

 

 

NaijaOnPoint Nigeria reports that the suspended Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, has described as ridiculous the shocking allegations made against him by his Head of Service, Dr George Nweke, who resigned from office as soon as President Bola Tinubu’s appointed Sole Administrator for the State assumed office.

 

Nweke had surprisingly left Port Harcourt for Abuja on Friday, where he addressed a Press Conference and accused Fubara of all kinds of atrocities committed against the State.

 

 

In a statement he posted on his Facebook page, Fubara not only dismissed the allegations as hog-wash but expressed surprise that Nweke could be so compromised.

 

For the record, a distraught Mrs Nweke had said her husband must have spoken under duress and feared for his life. She said it was not possible that her husband, who told her he resigned from office under duress because he refused to sign some documents to implicate Fubara, would suddenly turn around and accuse him of such criminal acts. “Not my husband”, she said and begged Fubara for pardon.

 

Following is Fubara’s response:

“My attention has been drawn to a press briefing by the former Head of Service, Dr. George Nwaeke, aired on Channels Television on Friday the 28th of March 2025.

“Ordinarily, I would not have responded to his claims, but to correct the erroneous impression such allegations may create in the minds of the people, and the disaffection it is bound to cause in the state and the country.

“First, on the claim that he was aware of my discussions and plans to support Bala Mohammed’s alleged 2027 presidential bid, it is laughable that Dr. Nweke would be part of any high level political meeting as Head of Service, much more sitting in my alleged night meetings with Bala Mohammed and militants like he claimed.

“Howbeit, none of such meetings ever held.

“The truth is that the whole world knew when the Bauchi State Governor, as Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party Governors Forum visited the State, and there was nothing secret about the visits.

“It is also ludicrous for Dr. Nweke to claim that he was aware of my meetings to encourage attacks on oil pipelines and other National assets in the State, as there was no time I held any meeting with militants or any criminal group to destabilise the State.

“It is on record that I have been at the forefront preaching peace in the State even in the face of obvious provocations.

“The truth is that Dr. Nwaeke has been compromised, and whatever he is saying is only aimed at fulfilling his promise to those who may have paid or coerced him to lie against me.

“I call on all well meaning Nigerians and the good people of Rivers State to disregard everything said by Dr. Nwaeke as they are mere desperate attempts to discredit me and my administration, and undermine the peace process by Mr. President.”
