Why I demolished two hotels
– By Victor Azubuike

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has given reasons why he demolished Prodest Hotel in Alode and Etemeteh Hotel in Onne, both in Eleme Local Government Area of the state.

Wike said the hotels were demolished after it violated an Executive Order on COVID 19, despite warnings from the State government.

The Governor said that the focus on hotels was because one of the coronavirus cases in the state spread the virus from a hotel.

Wike who monitored the demolition of Prodest Hotel, Alode, Eleme said his action was in line with the Rivers State Government Executive Order 6, which banned the operation of hotels across the 23 Local Government Areas of the State.

Governor Wike told newsmen at the demolition scene that the law must be obeyed, hence the State Government’s decision to enforce it.
According to him; “Government has no alternative but to apply the Executive order which I signed before the lockdown of Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt. I called all the Traditional Rulers and Council Chairmen and told them to ensure that no hotel operates in the State.

“We are not saying it will be forever. This is for now so that we know where we are. To reduce the cases and check the spread.

“Whether you are PDP or not, all we are saying is that nobody is above the law. If we can do this to a PDP person, then you know we are not discriminatory. Everyone must obey. Whether you are in the PDP, SDP or no party, you must obey the law. If any other person does the same thing, the same rule will apply.

“We said no hotel should operate within this period. Unfortunately, the PDP Youth Leader in Eleme joined others to flout the Executive Order. Therefore, the executive order will be applied.

“We said if any hotel operates, the government will bring down that hotel. We are doing what we have told people that we are going to do.

“Nobody wants to obey any rules. We are saying just for now, keep off, let us see how we can keep our people safe.

“Look at the rate of infections, most of these people are found in hotels. Look at the man that died, he was at Mingi Hotel in Rumumasi. Due to that contact, we have had other seven cases.

“People should help us and support the Government for Rivers people to be safe. The Security Council will meet to review the strategies and achievements or setbacks, moving forward.

“All we are doing is to protect our people. Some people may not like our strategies, but our objective is to achieve results. ”

Governor Wike reiterated his declaration that no hotel should operate anywhere in the state, adding that the Managing Director of the hotel at Onne has been arrested.

Thank God for Nnamdi Kanu

By Kuchoo Och

Thank God for creating NNAMDI KANU for the redemption of his people and by extension Nigeria too. Hate him or not dude is doing a lot for you.

If not for him, by now maybe myself particularly might be answering AHMED AMINU KUCHO and nothing is going to happen.

This man is the only threat to the Nigeria government because he keeps exposing their lies.

He is the only visible instrument of checks and balances to this government. All other arms have compromised to brown envelope; even Channels TV I once revered.

Believe me when I tell you this; in their covens and secret meetings, Nnamdi Kanu is always at the front burner of their agenda because they feel he knows too much; even their deepest secrets Mazi gets hold of it. This scares them.

Nnamdi Kanu exposed Channels TV for deceiving Nigerians that the last and previous presidential speeches by the impostor was a live recorded media speech.

Channels TV correspondent called it a LIVE chat that day, not only that, they visibly wrote "LIVE" on their screen.

Guess what? Nnamdi Kanu carefully pulled his facts and pieces of research and watet-tight information together and blasted out to counter the lies and deceit.

At first rebuttal, the media man of the presidency in the person of Adesina, affirmed their claim that the last media speech was a live transmission.

But now he bowed to the undeniable and irrefutable facts and evidences Nnamdi Kanu reeled out to the world to see. It indeed made sense!

Adesina has bowed to truth and agreed that it was indeed a pre-recorded speech and that his boss Buhari has the prerogative of talking to Nigerians in any manner he so deems fit.

Recently in a live media interview, Adesina suggested that Nigerians are 'used tissue paper'; so when next you frown that Nnamdi Kanu called Nigeria a zoo, to me he was being too polite.

You have heard it, you are seen as a used tissue paper by the president's media adviser. Zoological animal is
