Rivers
State Governor, Nyesom Wike has released an official statement in
reaction to claims that he was one of the sponsors of the deadly Niger
Delta Avengers.
Gov. Nyesom Wike
Reformed Niger Delta Avengers (RNDA) group that recently split from
Niger Delta Avengers (NDA), a militant organization responsible for
bombing numerous oil facilities, claimed in a statement
on Sunday that former President Goodluck Jonathan, Governors; Nyesom
Wike and Seriake Dickson are some of their alleged sponsors.
In a statement released by Simeon Nwakaudu, the spokesman for
Governor of Rivers State, Gov. Nyesom Wike has denied claims that he is a
sponsor of Niger Delta Avengers, and described the group's claim as “false media propaganda.”
The statement reads;
“Our attention has been drawn to yet another false media
propaganda wherein it was claimed that Rivers State Governor, Nyesom
Ezenwo Wike is one of the sponsors of the militant group, the Niger
Delta Avengers. We nequivocally deny this false report which was
fabricated with the aim of diverting attention from the superlative
performance of Governor Wike. Any close observer of this propaganda
machine would have noticed that all they do is concoct lies about Rivers
State. We urge all well-meaning persons to disregard this current
falsehood credited to a faceless splinter group of NDA.
"This falsehood may not be unconnected to Governor Wike’s
speech at the just-concluded conference of the Nigerian Guild of Editors
where he publicly declared that he and other stakeholders in the state
have prevented militant groups from sabotaging oil installations as is
the case elsewhere. Not happy with this declaration, they resolved to
concoct another ill-conceived report trying to mislead the people.
"Nigerians already know what these propagandists represent.
They represent retrogression, deliberate falsehood, under-development
and biased unprofessional journalism. Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike is a
patriotic leader, committed to the sustenance and improvement of the
nation’s democracy and economy. He is a promoter of security and good
governance. He cannot be disparaged by concocted publications from APC
media agents.”
