RIVERS CRISIS: APC indulging Wike is cause of ‘street fight’ with Gov Fubara

A former Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (North-West), Salihu Lukman, has decried the passage of the 2024 budget of the Rivers State government under 24 hours, saying it’s no longer democracy.

Lukman, known for his outspoken nature, also blamed the ruling APC government for the ongoing political crisis rocking Rivers State, claiming that the APC government has been indulging the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, an act he claimed has manifested in the ongoing “street fight” in that state.

The former Director-General of the Progressives Governors Forum said this at a media parley ahead of Tuesday’s public presentation of his new book, ‘APC and Transition Politics’ on Sunday in Abuja.
