The Rivers State Ethnic Youth Leaders Coalition (RSEYLC), has challenged the chairman of Ikwerre local government area of the state, Dr. Samuel Nwanosike, to remain in office after the expiration of his tenure on June 16, 2023.

Nwanosike, a loyalist of the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Chief Nyesom Wike, had while addressing his supporters recently, vowed not vacate his office at the end of his tenure on June 16.

The LG chairman, who directly addressed Governor Siminalayi Fubara, cited an extension of tenure by state lawmakers under the leadership of Rt. Hon. Martins Amaewhule as justification due to the state government’s failure to conduct local government elections.

But, RSEYLC, in a statement made available to newsmen in Port Harcourt yesterday, said youths of the state will resist and chase Nwanosike and any other LG chairman who refuses to vacate office after the expiration of their tenure out of the council sexretariats.

The statement, which was signed by the coalition’s chairman, Dr. Legborsi Yamaabana, advised supporters of the Ikwerre LGA chairman to be weary of the impending trap being set for them by their paymaster and emperor because Rivers people are fully prepared to take their destinies by themselves.

It reads in part: “The attention of the Rivers State Ethnic Youth Leaders Coalition has been drawn to a viral video where the Chairman of Ikwerre Local Government Area, Hon. Samuel Nwanosike is seen challenging His Excellency, Sir Siminalayi Fubara KSC, GSSRS, Executive Governor of Rivers State to come push him out of office when his tenure and that of his other prodigal colleagues comes to an end in June 2024.

“Well, it has become very glaring to Rivers people and Nigerians whom the real troublemakers and crisispreneurs in Rivers State are.

“This video validates rumored information that had filtered the state before now on their plans to ferment trouble in the State to pave way for the declaration of a state of emergency. They have also bragged about their connections with the Presidency and the judiciary, hence making them choose which laws to obey and which not to obey.

“We hereby use this opportunity to call on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Department of State Service, the police and other security agencies to hold Hon. Nwanosike responsible should there be any breakdown of law and order in Ikwerre and Rivers State in general.

“We challenge Mr. Nwanosike and his prodigal fellows to remain in office beyond their tenure expirations as Rivers youths will resist and chase them completely from anywhere close to the different Council Secretariats. If Mr. Nwanosike has two heads, let him dare to stay in office beyond his last day.

“We further advise Mr. Nwanosike’s gullible supporters to be weary of the impending trap being set for them by their paymaster and emperor because Rivers people are fully prepared to take their destinies by themselves.”
