According to our reporter, A revealing look at how political power struggles undermine democracy in Nigeria has been published on NewsVista.
HRN Anabs Sara-Igbe, a respected Ijaw elder statesman, has issued a powerful warning amid Rivers State’s political turmoil. Speaking on Symfoni TV, Sara-Igbe said, “The day you leave this office, you will either run away or they will come after you,” highlighting the fleeting nature of political power and the consequences of abusing it.
He criticized key players—including FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, Speaker Martins Amaewhule, and Governor Siminalayi Fubara—saying their selfish power struggles threaten the state’s stability. Despite provocations, Sara-Igbe praised Fubara’s calm, warning that ongoing harassment risks eroding public trust in democracy and could trigger backlash.
Urging moderation and adherence to constitutional processes, Sara-Igbe stressed that leadership must be about accountability and service—not fear or unchecked authority. His warning underscores the urgent need for Rivers State’s leaders to rethink their actions before history catches up with them.
