Who will save Rivers State from predators?
Sir: In Rivers State, things have fallen apart. Under Governor Nyesom Wike, Rivers is speedily drifting into a state of anarchy. Political marauders and serial killers are on the prowl, as human heads have now become trophies and souvenirs of electoral value. While ideas based on superior knowledge regulate the world, in Rivers, cutlasses and guns are now part of the dress code that dominates the political space.
I dare say that no nation can be built on scandalous political brigandage and deliberate impunity. Using any parameter of democratic practice, Rivers is drifting and the time to act is now.
