Governor of Rivers State, Barr. Nyesom Wike has said that he is not the Chief Security Officer of the state, but the Chief logistics Officer.
Wike made this known during a live TV interview on Sunday, January 31, 2020.
“When it concerns providing logistics that’s what we do. But talking about being Chief Security Officer…no. What control do you have?” he said.
The Governor berated the Federal Government, accusing them of politicizing the issue of security in the country.
He accused the Buhari administration of frustrating his efforts to tackle insecurity in the state.
Wike also said that State Governors should be allowed to handle security affairs, in their respective states.
