APC Chieftan Abe Stirs Defection Rumours With Praises On Wike

In words that are bound to recall allegations by the Rotimi Amaechi led mainstream of the All Progressives Congress, APC that he is a mole in their party, Senator Magnus Abe has openly poured praise on Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State for his peacebuilding inclinations.

Abe spoke at a funeral service in honour of Late Mrs Fyna Oby Atuzie-Boms, Wife of Former Attorney General of Rivers State,  Barrister Worgu Boms at the Civic Centre in Port Harcourt on Saturday.

He said: “I want to stand here today to confirm that you (Wike) are trying.  I want to remember the broadcast you made where you said we should all come together and you were going  to enter a nolle in respect of our younger brother,  Ojukaye Flag Amachree.

“I also want to recollect all the efforts you have made , not just in words, but in action to end the bitterness and division that have characterised the politics of Rivers State.  I want to say here today that some people are busy looking for who is causing the problem.  But you are trying to look for solutions.

“I think we should align with those who are locking  for solutions and leave those who are looking for causes.”

Senator Abe regretted that bitterness and hatred have characterised the politics of Rivers State,  making it impossible for Rivers people to come together to fight for Rivers Development.

“The greatest challenge  that Rivers State faces today is not all the things we have mentioned.  It is the fact that hatred, bitterness have characterized our politics and have divided us in a way that we have never been divided before.

“It has made it impossible for us to come together to face the challenges that are confronting our state. I want to thank the Governor of Rivers State for leading by example.  I have always said Your Excellency should be a Governor to all Rivers people,  both those that like you and  those that don’t.  Those that voted for you and those that did not”, Senator Abe said.  

The Former Federal Lawmaker called for a change of attitude towards tackling  the menace of cancer,  which claimed the life of Late Mrs Fyna Oby Atuzie-Boms.

He said that the Nigerian society must take concrete steps to confront cancer in order to check the number of lives being claimed by the cancer scourge.

He called for investments in the area of cancer treatment, so that the lives of the people can be preserved.

In a remark,  Rivers State Governor,  Nyesom Ezenwo Wike said that he knew the Late Mrs Fyna Oby Atuzie-Boms, whom he described as a good woman.

He advised the Former Attorney General of Rivers State,  Barrister Worgu Boms to always draw strength from the two children that his late wife left behind and take care of them.

In a condolence message to the Former Attorney General of Rivers State,  Rivers State Governor,  Nyesom Ezenwo Wike said he received the news of the passing  of Late Mrs Fyna Oby Atuzie-Boms with shock.

“My wife and I were shocked to hear of the untimely passing of your beloved wife,  Fyna Boms. That her life  was cut short too soon is a tragic loss and we can only imagine how difficult this must be for you, her entire family,  as well as her friends and colleagues.

“Full of life and conscientious,  Fyna was not just a treasure to your life, she was a wonderful lady admired by people across all sections for her dynamism,  devotion,  charm and graciousness “, Governor Wike wrote to the widower.

“On behalf of the Government and People of Rivers State, I extend our deepest condolences to you and members of her family over this irreparable loss “, Governor Wike wrote.

Former Attorney General of Rivers State,  Barrister Worgu Boms thanked the  Rivers State Governor,  Nyesom Ezenwo Wike and other leaders of the state for their  support at the trying time for him and his family.
