The Vice Chairman of Obio-Akpor Local Government Area in Rivers State, Sophia Nkoro, also known by her social media handle @MamaFedora3, has weighed in on the escalating violence following the recent local government elections.
In a bold statement on Twitter, Nkoro tagged former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike, addressing the rising tensions and destruction of council secretariats.
In her tweet, she referred to Wike as “Nebuchadnezzar,” adding, “@GovWike, if you burn down the council secretariat, we will build it back.” Nkoro’s defiant message follows the burning of three local government secretariats by suspected loyalists of the former governor, in response to the election outcomes.
