The Rivers Elders and Leadership Forum has written an open letter to President Bola Tinubu, condemning the recent threats made by former Rivers State Governor and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.
In the letter, the forum expressed concern over Wike’s statement on August 31, 2024, in which he threatened to “put fire” in states whose governors oppose him. The elders described the statement as “callous, mischievous, unacceptable, and a clear undermining of democracy and national security.”
