Youths in Rivers State have warned Governor Siminialayi Fubara not to recall the resigned commissioners into his government.
The youths who protested on Friday in the state threatened to occupy the government house if the governor fails to heed their warning.
They stressed that it was not the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, alone who voted Governor Fubara into office.
They also urged the governor to dump President Bola Tinubu’s peace deal.
“We’re calling on the governor not to recall any Commissioner. Any attempt to recall any Commissioner, we’ll occupy the Government House,” the protesting youths hammered.
“Nyesom Wike did not vote for Sim alone. We also voted for Sim. We’ll not allow anybody, anybody to truncate the will of Rivers people.
“So we’re calling on the Governor, don’t be under any pressure from anybody. We want to call on the Governor, don’t return the budget to the Assembly.
“The Rivers State House of Assembly has only one Speaker recognised by the law which is Edison Ehie. And as such, the seats of the 27 lawmakers are vacant. We want to call on the Governor, we voted for you and you must listen to us, Tinubu is not from Rivers State,” a leader of the protesting youths said.
