The political landscape in Rivers state is currently experiencing a tumultuous period, marked by unrest and tension among rival politicians. The state police command, under the leadership of Commissioner CP Tunji Disu, has issued a stern warning to politicians, cautioning them against resorting to verbal attacks that could potentially escalate into violence. The warning was communicated by Police Public Relations Officer SP Grace Iringe Koko, who reiterated the command’s commitment to upholding law and order in the state.
The recent feud between Governor Siminalayi Fubara and FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has added fuel to the already volatile political situation in Rivers. The continued exchange of heated rhetoric between the two camps has raised concerns about the potential for further unrest. In response, CP Disu and the state police command have made it clear that they will not tolerate any actions or statements that threaten the peace and stability of Rivers. The command has affirmed its neutrality and commitment to enforcing the rule of law without bias.
CP Disu’s warning comes at a crucial time when tensions are running high in the state. The command’s message serves as a reminder to all political actors and members of the public to conduct themselves in a manner that upholds the peace and security of the state. The police command has emphasized its role as custodians of law and order, entrusted with the responsibility of protecting lives and properties. Any attempts to disrupt the peace will be met with decisive action to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents.
In light of the current political unrest, both CP Disu and SP Koko have called on all stakeholders to seek peaceful and lawful means to address their grievances. They have urged politicians and the public to abide by the laws of the land and refrain from actions that could incite violence or destabilize the state. The command’s message serves as a warning to those involved in the ongoing political turmoil, urging them to prioritize dialogue and conflict resolution through legal channels.
Meanwhile, Governor Nyesom Wike has issued a veiled message to his rival Governor Siminalayi Fubara, asserting his confidence in his team’s ability to emerge victorious in the 2027 election. Wike’s statement underscores the deep-seated divisions within the political landscape of Rivers and the competitive nature of political power struggles in the state.
As the political climate in Rivers remains volatile, the state police command’s warning serves as a crucial reminder of the importance of peaceful coexistence and adherence to the rule of law. It is imperative for all stakeholders to prioritize dialogue and conflict resolution in order to prevent further escalation of tensions and preserve the peace and stability of the state. Only through cooperation and mutual respect can Rivers navigate through these challenging times and emerge stronger and more united.
