Rotimi Amaechi claims that President Tinubu declared an emergency in Rivers State just to scare governors who might run against him in 2027. The former Rivers boss told foreign reporters that money-sharing problems started the entire mess between ex-governor Wike and current leader Fubara. He believes Tinubu broke constitutional rules with his actions against the state government.
Amaechi wants PDP governors to fight back through the courts immediately. He also thinks people across Nigeria should protest what he calls an illegal suspension. "They're simply arguing about how to split cash," Amaechi said about Wike and Fubara. The President acted completely outside what our constitution allows."
The transportation minister from the past administration points fingers directly at President Tinubu and the Federal Capital Territory Minister. He says these two planned everything happening in Rivers State politics today. Amaechi reminded everyone that security falls under presidential duties according to Nigerian law.
He strongly objects to anyone blaming Governor Fubara, who cannot defend himself after being suspended. Amaechi sees the entire situation as a power grab masked as security concerns. He urges citizens to recognize these actions as threats to democracy rather than legitimate emergency measures. Many observers watch closely as this conflict between federal and state powers unfolds across Rivers State.
