Senator, representing Rivers South East Senatorial District, Sen. Barry Mpigi says they are not satisfied with what the state governor – Sim Fubara is doing.
Sen. Mpigi during a meeting with some of his loyalists few days ago said since Fubara emerged as governor, he has not called them to a meeting for consultations, and does not take calls.
Part of his statement reads,
We, the leaders of this state, are not satisfied with what the governor (Sir. Sim Fubara) is doing currently. So he should not say Wike. I’m representing the governor as a senator, am I aware of what is happening? No, I’m not aware. So I’m not happy. If you are saying Wike is having a problem, no.
Since we elected the governor till today, a governor that doesn’t take phone calls, a governor that will not call his people. The governor should be able to call us if there is any problem on the ground.
I think there should be a consultative meeting. We met in Senator Olaka Wogu’s house before the election. Since after the election, has the governor called us? He has not called us.
We are not slaves and we can’t be slaves. Remove Wike from the equation, we from the Rivers South-East senatorial district, where the governor comes from, we are not happy with the output of what the governor is doing.
