Nigerian Police Deploy Nyesom Wike’s Ex-Chief Security Officer, Other Loyalists To Head Tactical Units In Rivers State Amid Governor Fubara’s Impeachment Plot

The Nigeria Police Force has deployed Promise Wosu, a former Chief Security Officer to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike as the new commander of Special Protection Unit tagged Base 6 in Rivers State, according to signals obtained by SaharaReporters.

SaharaReporters gathered that Nwosu was deployed to head the special unit days after he was sacked as the CSO to the current Rivers Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.

His sack may not be unconnected with the move by some of the State House of Assembly allegedly acting on the directive of ex-Governor Wike to impeach Fubara.

The SPU which Nwosu now heads in Rivers was established in 2009 to fortify security around VIPS and diplomats.

Two other loyalists and former aides of the FCT minister in the police force were also deployed to head the Counter Terrorism Unit (CTU) and ‘Operation Sting’.

They are Irikefe London Owen, a former Camp Commandant of Rivers Government House and Emmanuel Nwakanme.

Operation Sting was a special state security outfit launched by Wike in 2019 while governing the state.

According to sources, the move was to hijack all the security architecture in Rivers State in favour of the FCT Minister and easy impeachment of Governor Fubara

“Barrister Nyesom Wike, Minister of FCT had imposed the sacked CSO, Promise Wosu, Camp Commandant of Government House, Irikefe London and Emmanuel Nwakanma to head police tactical squads in Rivers State,” a senior police officer said in a message to SaharaReporters.

“This is to give way for easy impeachment of his successor Fubara. They are to head CTU, SPU and Operation Sting in Rivers State.”

A signal signed by AIG Olarewaju Yomi Oladimeji, Police Force Secretary and dated October 31st, 2023 also confirmed the posting of the senior officers to the various tactical units.

Last week, the political situation in Rivers became a full-blown crisis when the State House of Assembly began impeachment proceedings against Fubara who assumed office in May after Wike’s eight-year double .

The governor is being accused of acts of gross misconduct unbecoming of his office.

On Sunday night, a section of the assembly complex was gutted by fire.

There were speculations that the fire incident was orchestrated to prevent the lawmakers from initiating impeachment proceedings against Fubara.

The governor on Monday visited the assembly complex to inspect the level of damage but his convoy was shot at and teargassed by policemen.

President Bola Tinubu has since met with Fubara and Wike as part of efforts to resolve the crisis.

I hope SIM body don come down cheesy For anything in life, don't try to outsmart your master or helper.

E no easy to sponsor election in a country in Nigeria. So person sponsor you, finance you, mobilize for you, consult for you, even do juju for you to win, only for you to enter as a governor and you suddenly put pad for your shoulder.
Agreement is agreement.

Always reading useless meaning to everything

Sowore is a hero of democracy and that's why I don't like insulting him, but sometimes he doesn't act smart as a journalist and reduces himself to the level of David Hudeyen the drop out blogger

Wike is not fighting for himself but his loyalist who s him



.

he will never touch SIM

They will gather in fubara's name,but they will surely scatter.



Insha Allah!

The rate at which Nigerian politicians are going with their greed will determine how fast the nation will crumble, and I pray it happens real fast.

Nigeria my country

Fubara should be careful sha!All those pushing and claiming to stand with him,were never in of him.They were not there when Wike was begging round to see he emerges.Abnormal human beings that just want to hear Wike and fubara are fighting.

You are underestimating the power of a governor. Nothing can wike do. Do u know what it means to be a sitting governor? Have u ever seen any governor that fought with his godfather while he was on seat and the godfather did somthing to him? U have no idea the power of a governor. Its not minister ooo

Apc is a cancer that should have been avoided. But tribalism and hatred never allow Nigeria to use common sense.
