A chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party, Dele Momodu has described President, Ahmed Tinubu’s intervention in the crisis between Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike as legally absurd.
Momodu in a statement on Instagram shortly after the meeting said the President cannot be the headmaster of state and Federal Government.
He said,“The directives to Rivers State by a Federal President is really absurd in legal terms. No President can be a Headmaster of both State and Federal.
“What manner of democracy are we practicing that allows a President to intervene in the internal affairs of opposition parties and over-rules the Constitution unchallenged, and our politicians comply as if they are in a slave camp.
“Opposition parties must vehemently oppose this brazen attempt at forcing a one-party dictatorship on Nigeria
