Rivers State Government says that there are fears that
Governor Nyesom Wike has been earmarked for assassination following the sudden
removal of his Chief Security Officer today, Tuesday, December 6, 2016.
The Commissioner for Information and Communication, Dr.
Austin Tam-George, in a statement issued in Port Harcourt, said the sudden
removal of the Chief Security Officer, came as an aftermath of Governor Wike’s
interview on Channels Television today.
Dr. Tam-George said that in the interview, the governor had
blamed security agencies for launching a campaign of persecution against
officials of the State Government.
” We are concerned that the governor of a State will not be
consulted before the removal of his Chief Security Officer.
This is an ominous sign that the governor’s life is in great
danger, ” he stated.
He called on the International Community not to turn a blind
eye to what is happening in Rivers State as it portends great danger to the
survival of democracy in the country.
