On Monday, Hon. Ikenga Ugochinyere, a member of the House of Representatives, made the suggestion that the nation is done.
According to Ugochinyere, while the police were powerless to stop them, supporters of a minister who was still in office in President Bola Tinubu’s administration were allegedly busy setting fire to the headquarters of a different branch of government.
The announcement coincides with Rivers State’s ongoing political unrest in the wake of last Saturday’s local government election.
On Monday, there was news that shortly after newly elected chairman Brian Gokpa arrived, part of the Eleme Local Government administration was set on fire.
However, Ugochinyere asserted in a post on his X Twitter that Nigeria has previously followed similar pathways and that the results were dire.
He said: “Nigeria is finished. Supporters of a serving minister in Tinubu’s government are alleged to be busy burning headquarters of another arm of government and the Police since morning have not stopped them.
“Mr. President, do you know what this means? Nigeria has worked paths like this before and the consequences were enormous.
“Stop the madness these overnight supporters are carrying out. Rivers People and Nigerians are recording all these for you.
“Elected LGA Chairmen have been sworn in and there is nothing these alleged Wike group can do that will change this or remove the democratically elected government of Gov. Fubara from office.”
