Governor Fubara Knocks Wike’s Aide, Calls Him a “Data Boy” and “Dog Seller”

Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has slammed a media aide to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike.

Fubara has labelled the aide “a data boy” and “dog seller” in response to comments about projects in Etche-Omuma.

The governor questioned the qualifications and motivations of the aide, who had reportedly criticized the Governor’s recent project inaugurations. The Governor accused him of lacking understanding of governance despite being close to a former governor for eight years.

“If they love you, the appointment they gave to one boy the other day, if you were good, why didn’t they give you that appointment? Go and check yourself, something is wrong with you,” Fubara said.

He made the remarks during the inauguration of the remodelled Government Girls’ Secondary School in Ahoada.

The Governor advised individuals who resort to online insults to reflect on their life choices and contribute more meaningfully to society. “We will not celebrate things that will not have meaning,” he stated

Fubara clarified that while his administration respects past efforts, it is focused on delivering new, impactful projects that cater to the strategic needs of the people. He emphasized the importance of addressing critical development needs, saying, “Projects’ delivery is not for mere fanfare.”

The Governor expressed gratitude to the Ekpeye people for their support, despite facing harassment and intimidation. He cited the unjust detention of traditional rulers and the Chief of Staff, Dr. Edison Ehie, as examples of the challenges they had faced.

Fubara reaffirmed his belief that justice and victory were imminent, saying, “The truth is always clear: enemies have a time, their team cannot last forever.”

The Governor’s comments come amidst a long-standing feud between him and former Governor Wike.
