Eze Chukwuemeka Eze has tackled Governor Nyesom Wike for
accusing President Muhammadu Buhari of appointing a Vice Chancellor for the
University of Port Harcourt, to help the All Progressives Congress, APC, rig
election in 2023.
Prof. Georgewill Owunari was recently appointed by the
Ministry of Education as the new Vice-Chancellor of the University of Port
Harcourt.
Governor Wike had accused the Buhari-led Federal Government
of appointing Vice-Chancellors that will assist the APC in rigging the 2023
general elections in Rivers State.
The Governor of Rivers State had issued a threat to any
official of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC who would make
themselves available as willing tools in the hands of political desperados to
rig elections during an even in Port Harcourt.
He had said, “Let me warn, not one person will dare to rig
Election in Rivers state, not one person will dare it, anybody who does that,
you know it’s a coup and you know the punishment for that..”
Wike went further to state that only compromised academics,
willing to submit names of politically exposed lecturers as returning officers
to rig elections for the ruling party, are being appointed as Vice Chancellors
of Federal universities while vowing that those contemplating to rig elections
in the State would be treated as coup plotters.
Eze, in his reaction, said the Governor’s comment was a
tragic irony, as his catholic records of election thievery remain public and
apparent to all.
He said Wike’s statement had stemmed from the brooding
embitterment occasioned by the failure of his preferred candidate for the
office of the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Port Harcourt.
Eze accused Wike of playing a satanic role during the 2019
elections by weighing big influence being Minister of Education for State which
position he may have allegedly used to influence the appointment of
Vice-Chancellors who played no mean roles in his becoming Governor of Rivers
State.
Eze said the widely published report of the police
recovering N114 million from the N360 million used by the Rivers Governor, to
bribe INEC officials to announce cooked results in his favour, adds to his
credence.
Eze said the police report should have compelled Wike and
those in his government to resign to avoid further engagements in a fanfare of
squandermania and allowing unfettered assessment into the summarily
embarrassing, grossly messy and high-profile indictment against the Governor.
